Historical Background
The need to calculate material weight precisely dates back to ancient construction and manufacturing processes, where builders and craftsmen required accurate material measurements to ensure structural stability. With industrialization, the use of various materials in construction, engineering, and manufacturing necessitated the development of systematic weight calculation methods for different material shapes.
Calculation Formulas
Different shapes have distinct weight calculation formulas:
- Flat Sheet: \( \text{Weight} = L \times W \times H \times d \)
- Round Bar: \( \text{Weight} = \pi \times \frac{D^2}{4} \times L \times d \)
- Square Hollow Tube: \( \text{Weight} = [W^2 - (W - T)^2] \times L \times d \)
- Round Hollow Tube: \( \text{Weight} = \pi \times (R^2 - r^2) \times L \times d \)
- Square Angle: \(
