Rebar Weight Calculator

Estimate reinforcement steel weight from bar length, number of bars and published nominal bar weight.

How this calculator works

Bar length (ft) × quantity (pieces) × nominal bar weight (lb/ft) × (1 + waste % ÷ 100).

Typical ASTM nominal weights: #3 0.376, #4 0.668, #5 1.043, #6 1.502 lb/ft. Enter the appropriate weight; include lap splices, hooks, bend allowances and schedules separately.

Use field-verified dimensions. This planning estimate does not substitute for a complete takeoff, structural design or local supplier quote.
