To calculate the volume of the steel ingot, we need to know the density of steel. The density of steel is around 0.284 pounds per cubic inch. Therefore, to find the volume in cubic inches, we divide the weight (4000 pounds) by the density (0.284 pounds per cubic inch) to get 14,084.5 cubic inches. Finally, to convert cubic inches to cubic feet, we divide by 1728 (since 1 cubic foot = 1728 cubic inches), resulting in a volume of approximately 8.15 cubic feet.
First off lets find the volume. Area of the Base times the Height. In your situation, the Height is 4.5 inches and the area of the base would follow the pi * r^2 formula since you mentioned diameter and that is associated with a circle. So putting all that together, you get: 4.5 * pi * .0625^2 which equals roughly 0.05522 using 3.14159265358979 as pi. Now that is in cubic inches, and according to benjaminsteel.com, 1 cubic inch of steel is about .2904 lbs. Therefore .05522 (cubic inches) * .2904 (lbs.) equals about 0.01604 (lbs.) which would be the answer you're looking for.
Cubic inches = pi*r^2*L wherer = radius of rod = 1/2*diameter and L = length, both measured in inches.
26 GA. steel is 0.0179 inches thick.
Probably meant cubic inches... start with the density of stainless steel. Of course that depends on the consist of the steel... let's just use a nice round number like 8000 kg/cubic meter. Convert cubic meters into cubic inches using conversion factors: 8000 kg/m3 * (1/39.37 in/m) (1/39.37 in/m) (1/39.37 in/m) = 8000 kg/m3 * (1/61023.377953 in3/m3) ~ 0.131 kg/in3 That's the number of kilograms per cubic inch. To find the number of cubic inches per kilogram, merely invert: 1/0.131 kg/in3 ~ 7.628 in3/kg So, around 7.628 cubic inches are in 1 kilogram of stainless steel.
1 ft^3 = 12in * 12in * 12in = 1728in^3 Density of steel: 0.283lb/in^3 1728in^3 * 0.283lb/in^3 = 489.024lb - Nick Mowry
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

The US one-cent coin is 0.750 inches in diameter and 0.061 inches thick,for a volume of 0.027 cubic inches.The UK plated-steel penny (one new pence) is 20.32 mm in diameter and 1.65 mm thick, for a volume of 0.535 cm3 or about 0.033 cubic inches.(see related question)
Multiply by 0.29 to get an approximate measure. The exact conversion will depend on the precise composition of the steel.
Steel is typically 490 lb/cubic foot. There are 1,728 square inches in a cubic foot which means that each cubic inch weighs about .284 pounds (just a bit over a quarter of a pound per square inch).
