We know the formula D2/162 which is being used for calculate unit weight of reinforcement per meter.
Here I am willing to explain how it has been arrived D2/162 (Note: D unit is in MM)
Weight of bar per meter = Area of steel bar X Density of steel x Length of bar
= (3.14 x D2/4) x 7850 kg/m3 x 1 m
= D2 X 6162.25/(1000x1000)
= D2 X (0.006162)
= D2 X 1/(0.006162)-1
= (D2/162.28)
The actual value is D2/162.28
Kindly note that this function is only applicable for circular shape steel which density is 7850kg/m3

What does it mean SS Round Rod?
Engineers and metal workers use the following abbreviations for metals. SS - Stainless Steel. MS- Mild Steel which means the weakest strength steel which is made. RHS - Rectangular Hollow Section. SHS - Square Hollow Section. There are many grades of Stainless Steel, depending upon what it is to be used for. Some cheap grades of SS , are only partly rust resistant. More expensive types such as used to make kitchen sinks, are totally rust free.
