Density of Common Metals and Alloys

The density of some common Metals and Alloys are indicated in the table below, These are the data needed for design, to identify the self weight of the steel member and it is also used for estimation, to calculate the total weight in metric tons or in kilograms needed to complete the entire projects.

Since the above data are in kilogram per cubic meter (kg/cu.m), to calculate the equivalent  lb/cu/ft and lb/cu.in, you can use this conversion data: 1 kg/m3 = 0.0624 lb/ft3 = 0.000036127 lb/in3
