How to calculate ms square pipe?

To calculate an MS (Mild Steel) square pipe, you need its outer width, thickness, and length.

Step 1: Note the outer width (W), thickness (T), and length (L) in meters.
Step 2: Calculate the cross-sectional area:

Area = (W² − (W − 2T)²)

Step 3: Multiply the cross-sectional area by the length to get the volume:

Volume = Area × Length

Step 4: Multiply the volume by steel density (~7850 kg/m³) to get the weight in kg.

Example: For a 100 mm × 100 mm × 6 m pipe with 5 mm thickness:

• Cross-section = (0.1² − (0.1 − 0.01)²) = 0.0019 m²

• Volume = 0.0019 × 6 = 0.0114 m³

• Weight ≈ 0.0114 × 7850 ≈ 89.5 kg
