Steel Quantity Calculator

Estimate reinforcement steel (rebar) quantity and cost for RCC members from concrete volume and member type, using standard kg-per-m³ rates.

Result

Metric		Value

Notes & assumptions: Steel = concrete volume × kg-per-m³ for the member type (footings ~75, slabs ~100, beams ~130, columns ~160 kg/m³). Rates are typical; exact steel comes from the bar bending schedule.

FAQ

How much steel is required per m³ of concrete?

Roughly 75 kg/m³ for footings, 100 for slabs, 130 for beams and 160 for columns.

How do I convert to tonnes?

Divide the steel weight in kg by 1,000.

Is this exact?

No — it is a thumb-rule estimate; the bar bending schedule from structural drawings gives exact quantities.
