Concrete Pipe

Weight Calculation

How is the weight of Concrete Pipe calculated?

Pipe weight (kg/m) = (outside diameter − wall thickness) × wall thickness × π × density / 1000. One metre of Ø48.3 × 3 mm Concrete Pipe weighs about 1.025 kg.

What is the density of Concrete?

The density of Concrete is taken as 2.4 g/cm³ (2,400 kg/m³).

Concrete Pipe weight table for standard sizes

Size (mm)Weight (kg/m)
Ø21.3 × 20.291
Ø33.7 × 2.50.588
Ø48.3 × 31.025
Ø60.3 × 31.296
Ø88.9 × 42.561
Ø114.3 × 43.327

How accurate is the calculated weight?

Values are theoretical; production tolerances and corner radii can make the actual weight differ by 2–5%.
