Standard weight, mill weight and today's amount
Method
IPE weight per metre is read from DIN 1025-5; the size number is the beam height in cm. A length weighs kg/m × its length.
The density of steel is 7.85 g/cm³ (7850 kg/m³) throughout. A number is rounded once, when shown; the table below and the calculator above are the same computation.
The "standard weight" is the nominal weight by table or formula. The "mill weight" is what that mill states for its own length; once you pick a mill, the calculation and the amount use it.
Reference table
Common sizes, by the same computation as the calculator.

| 8 | 6 | 72 |
| 10 | 8.1 | 97.2 |
| 12 | 10.4 | 124.8 |
| 14 | 12.9 | 154.8 |
| 16 | 15.8 | 189.6 |

IPE size 14 weighs 12.9 kg per metre, and a 12 m length weighs 154.8 kg. Basis: Standard table DIN 1025-5.
For IPE size 14, one tonne is 6.46 lengths of 12 m, that is 7 whole lengths (1,083.6 kg). For any other size use the count-from-weight mode.
The standard weight is the nominal weight by table or formula, the same for every mill. The mill weight is what each mill states for its own length. Pick a mill and its weight and today's price become the basis of the amount.
Pick a mill to see the amount at today's price, then use "Add to cart" or "Proforma". There is no online payment; an Ahantime expert calls to complete the purchase.
