How to calculate the weight of the mild steel channel?
Mild steel channels are U-shaped steel structures whose size and thickness can be used to describe them. Mild steel channels are made up of two parts: the bottom flange and the top web. The flange is the bottom, horizontal part, and the web is the top, vertical part.
It doesn’t have equal-length sides. For example, a Mild Steel channel is 5 mm thick and has sides that are 100 mm wide and 50 mm wide.
MS channel size
We know that an MS channel is made up of a flange and a web. It also comes in different sizes, from 75404.8 mm to 4001008.8 mm.
The MS channel’s weight is measured in kilograms per meter or kilograms per foot. Obviously, dimensions with a higher value will have a higher weight value, while dimensions with a lower value will have a lower weight value.
For example, the size of an MS channel is 100×50×5 mm
Mild Steel Channel Unit Weight
The unit weight of an MS channel is found by using the formula weight = volume density. The density of steel is 7850 kg/m3, and the volume is found by multiplying the web height by the flange width by the thickness.
Mild Steel Channel Weight in kg per Meter
MS Web Volume
MS Channel Size = 100×50×5 mm
Web Depth = 100 mm =0.1m
Web Thickness = 5 mm=0.005 m
Web Length = 1 m
Volume = l×b×h
Volume = 0.1×0.005×1 m3
Web Volume = 0.0005 m3
Two flange Volume
MS Channel Size = 100×50×5 mm
Flange Width = 50_5 mm =45mm=0.045 m
Flange Thickness = 5 mm=0.005 m
Flange Length = 1 m
Volume = l×b×h
Volume = 0.045×0.005×1 m3
Flange Volume = 0.000225 m3
Two Flange Volume = 0.000225×2 m3
Two Flange Volume of = 0.000450 m3
MS channel Total volume
Total volume = volume of flange+ volume of web
Total volume = 0.000450 +0.0005 m3
Total volume =0.000950m3
4) Weight of MS channel
Weight = volume× density
Volume = 0.000950 m3
Density of steel = 7850 kg/m3
Weight = 0.000950m3×7850 kg/m3
Weight of MS channel = 7.45 kg/m
Ans: MS channel unit weight will be 7.45 kg

To reduce CO2 emissions, the government orders the steel industry to create a time-bound action plan: In order to comply with the government’s COP26 commitments, the Ministry of Steel has requested the stakeholders to develop a time-bound action plan to cut emissions in the steel industry.
How does India intend to decarbonize its steel production? : Steel is one of the most important parts of modern society, and as one of the most important materials for engineering and building, it is used in many parts of our lives.
