Weight Per Foot Calculator
How much one foot of a material weighs? Our tool simply it. It uses total weight and length. You input numbers in. It gives weight per foot in pounds or kilograms. You use it for beams, pipes, rods, and cables. It saves time and avoids guesswork.
Why Weight Per Foot Calculator Matter?
For example, I hold a steel beam. I say, “This beam is 120 lb and it is 20 ft long. Find weight per foot.” You listen and follow. You need this when you buy material. Also when you plan lifting, shipping, or design. So you avoid surprises.
Calculate the example step by step
First, know the formula.
Weight per foot = Total weight ÷ Length.
Second, plug numbers. Total weight = 120 lb. Length = 20 ft.
Third, do the math step by step. 120 ÷ 20 = ?
20 goes into 120 six times because 20 × 6 = 120.
So weight per foot = 6 lb/ft.
Finally, note units. Keep them consistent.
Final Words: Do a quick divide by hand for small jobs, or use the calculator for speed and accuracy.
