Answer / pallavi
The quantity of steel can be calculated by formula:
d*d/162 kg/m. where d=diameter of bar in metre
this formula has been derived by relation
density=mass/volume
However, percentage of steel in rcc structure can be taken
as 0.15% of the gross area of cocrete
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 37 Yes | 20 No |
calculation for one meter is d*d/162.162 d=dia of steel (mm)
than mutiply by length of steel bar

Answer / azizurrehman
formula=d*d/162.162 d is Dia of steel in mm
then multiply with bars
