Best Answer

TO answer this question, you need to know the density and the volume of the piece of steel. For example, "mild steel" weighs .284 pounds per cubic inch.

The volume of a 12 inch x 12 inch x 1 inch piece of steel is 12 * 12 * 1 = 144 cubic inches.

.284 pounds/inch^3 * 144 inch^3 = 40.896 pounds.

So each of these steel tiles will weigh about 41 pounds.

How much does weigh steel?

Steel weighs .283 lbs./ cu. in. One of the most useful numbers is: one square foot of 1" steel weighs 40# (really 40.8#) So, quick math says a square 1/4" thick being on quarter the dimension, is 10 #,1/8" is 5#, etc. A 1" square bar 12' long is 40#, or 3.3# foot x 20'= 66# A 3" square tube with 1/4" wall one foot long is nothing but a one square foot piece folded up, it's 10# also.

Can a bullet go through steel?

Yes, and no. There are certain bullets that are designed with extreme piercing in mind. Such bullets are important to the military. Most bullets, however, are not strong enough to pierce steel. It also depends on the type of steel involved. A 20 foot thick piece of steel could assuredly not be pierced by ANY bullet that is produced today. But a baking sheet thickness of steel could be pierced by steel. About 2 inches of steel can stop a bullet for most bullets :) If you're considering using a piece of steel to wear to get shot in- Just say no to stupid ;)


Is steel bulletproof?

It depends. If it is a foot thick, definitely. but if the steel is only a few inches or less than an inch, it isn't. steel isn't strong enough on it's own to be bulletproof.
