Weight Calculation

How is the weight of Barium Hollow Section calculated?

Hollow section weight is the outer cross-section minus the hollow core: (height × width − (height − 2 × wall) × (width − 2 × wall)) × length × density. One metre of 40 × 40 × 3 mm Barium Hollow Section weighs about 1.598 kg.

What is the density of Barium?

The density of Barium is taken as 3.6 g/cm³ (3,600 kg/m³).

Barium Hollow Section weight table for standard sizes

Size (mm)Weight (kg/m)
20 × 20 × 20.518
30 × 30 × 20.806
40 × 40 × 31.598
50 × 50 × 32.030
60 × 40 × 32.030
