The weight of MS plates is the multiplication of volume and density. The density of steel is 7850 Kg/m3.
Weight of MS Plate = Volume of MS Plate × Density of Steel
= Volume * 7850 kg
For Example:
When the length of the MS plate is 1m, the breadth is 1m, and also a thickness of 1m, then
Weight of MS Plate = Volume × density
= 1 x 7850
Weight of Ms Plate= 7850 Kg/m2

2. Calculation of MS Weight For Different Thickness
a. 6 mm MS Plate Weight
Given,
Thickness of MS plate = 6 mm = 0.006 m
Length of MS plate = 1m
Width of MS plate = 1m
Area of MS plate = 1×1 m2 = 1 m2
Now,
Volume = Area × thickness
Volume = 1m2 ×0.006 m = 0.006 m3
Density of steel = 7850 Kg/m3
Using the formula,
Weight of ms plate 6mm = Volume × Density
weight of MS plate 6mm = 0.006 m3×7850 Kg/m3
6 mm MS plate weight = 47.1 Kg/m2
We know that 1 m2 = 10.764 sq.ft
So the weight of ms plate per sq. feet is
= 47.1/10.764
= 4.376 Kg/ft2
b. 8 mm thick MS Plate Weight
We have given thickness of MS plate = 8mm = 0.008 m
Length of MS plate = 1m
Width of MS plate = 1m
Area of MS plate = 1×1 m2 = 1 m2
Now,
Volume = Area × thickness
Volume = 1m2 ×0.008 m = 0.008 m3
Density of steel = 7850 Kg/m3
8 mm thick MS plate weight = Volume × Density
Weight of 8 mm MS plate = 0.008 m3×7850 Kg/m3
8 mm thick MS plate weight = 62.8 Kg/m2
We know that 1m2 = 10.764 sq.ft
The weight of the MS plate per sq. foot is
= 62.8/10.764
= 5.834 Kg/ft2
c. 10 mm MS Plate Weight
We have given thickness of MS plate = 10mm = 0.010 m
Length of MS plate = 1m
Width of MS plate = 1m
Area of MS plate = 1×1 m2 = 1 m2
Now,
Volume = Area × thickness
Volume = 1m2 ×0.010 m = 0.010 m3
Density of steel = 7850 Kg/m3
Now,
10 mm MS plate weight = Volume × Density
weight of MS plate 10 mm = 0.010 m3 × 7850 Kg/m3
weight of MS plate 10 mm = 78.5 Kg/m2
We know that,
1m2 = 10.764 sq. ft
The weight of MS plate per sq. feet is,
= 78.5/10.764
= 7.29 Kg/ft2
d. 12.5 MS Plate Weight
Given,
Thickness of MS plate = 12.5 mm = 0.0125 m
Length of MS plate = 1m
Width of MS plate = 1m
Area of MS plate = 1×1 m2 = 1 m2
Now,
Volume = Area × thickness
Volume = 1m2 ×0.0125 m = 0.0125 m3
Density of steel = 7850 Kg/m3
Now,
Weight of MS plate 12.5mm = Volume × Density
weight of MS plate 12.5mm = 0.0125 m3 ×7850 Kg/m3
Weight of MS plate 12.5mm = 98.1 Kg/m2
We know that 1m2 = 10.764 sq.ft
So the weight of ms plate per sq. feet is
= 98.1/10.764
= 9.113 Kg/ft2
e. 12 mm Thick MS Plate Weight
Given,
Thickness of MS plate = 12 mm = 0.0120 m
Length of MS plate = 1m
Width of MS plate = 1m
Area of MS plate = 1×1 m2 = 1 m2
Now,
Volume = Area × thickness
Volume = 1m2 ×0.0120 m = 0.0120 m3
Density of steel = 7850 Kg/m3
Now,
12 mm thick ms plate weight = Volume × Density
weight of MS plate 12 mm = 0.0120 m3 × 7850 Kg/m3
12 mm thick MS plate weight = 94.2 Kg/m2
We know that,
1m2 = 10.764 sq. ft
The weight of the MS plate per sq. foot is
= 94.2/10.764
= 8.75 Kg/ft2
f. 20 mm thick MS plate weight
We have given thickness of MS plate = 12 mm = 0.0120 m
Length of MS plate = 1m
Width of MS plate = 1m
Area of MS plate = 1×1 m2 = 1 m2
Now,
Volume = Area × thickness
Volume = 1m2 ×0.0120 m = 0.0120 m3
Density of steel = 7850 Kg/m3
Now 20 mm thick MS plate weight = Volume × Density
Weight of ms plate 20 mm = 0.0200 m3×7850 Kg/m3
20 mm thick ms plate weight = 157 Kg/m2
We know that 1m2 = 10.764 sq.ft
The weight of the MS plate per sq. foot is
= 157/10.764
= 14.585 Kg/ft2
