"Solid Steel" would not be a pipe- it would be a rod. Weight of pipe will vary depending on the thickness of the wall of the pipe.
The density of steel varies, but if we assume it's 7.9 grams per cubic centimeter, then the weight of a 12" x 12" x 1/4" chunk can be calculated. There are 36 cubic inches in the chunk of steel (multiply the dimensions together), and there are about 16.387064 cubic centimeters in a cubic inch. That means there are about 573.54724 cubic centimeters in 36 cubic inches. At 7.9 grams per cubic centimeter, there are about 4531.023 grams of steel in 36 cubic inches of this alloy of iron. There are about 4531.023 grams or 4.53 kilograms, or about 9.989 (almost 10) pounds of steel in your twelve by twelve by one quarter piece. The answer in English units is 1 square foot of 1 inch steel weighs 40.8 pounds. take length times width in feet times the thickness in inches times 40.8 to find the weight. In answer to your question the weight would be 10.2 lbs. 1' * 1' *.250*40.8
Well, honey, technically speaking, the length of a steel girder remains the same regardless of whether it's standing vertically or horizontally. The orientation may change how you measure it, but the actual length doesn't magically shrink or grow depending on how it's positioned. So, rest assured, that girder ain't playing any tricks on you!
TOR is a manufacturer's name for CTD (Cold Twisted Deformed) steel bars, also known as "rebar" and used as reinforcement in concrete. While it certainly can be ordered from the manufacturer in any lengths, most hardware suppliers carry a standard 20' length.
An angle iron is a length of iron or steel, with an L-shaped cross-section, used as a structural support.
