CALCULATORS
Calculate metal weights and conversions with ease.
Project planning? Logistics? Fabrication estimating? Don’t guess – let our online tools do the math.
Steel Weights Calculator
Determine theoretical steel weights based on cross-sectional dimensions, density values, and shape factors. This calculator supports a variety of profiles – plate, bar, tube, and structural sections – providing engineers with reliable data for load calculations, shipping estimates, and material planning.
Carbon Equivalents Calculator
Calculate the carbon equivalent (C.E.) of steel to assess weldability in accordance with commonly used formulas such as IIW and AWS methods. By factoring in alloying elements like Mn, Cr, Mo, V, Ni, and Cu, the tool helps predict hardness levels and the risk of hydrogen-induced cracking during fabrication.
PCM Calculator
The PCM (Predictive Carbon Method) Calculator refines weldability analysis by placing greater emphasis on silicon, copper, and other residual elements not fully addressed in standard C.E. formulas. Particularly suited for high-strength, low-alloy steels, the PCM value assists in predicting cold-cracking sensitivity and required preheat conditions.
Conversions Calculator
Convert between essential engineering units with precision—length, area, volume, mass, force, and temperature. This tool eliminates manual conversion errors and supports compliance with both U.S. customary and SI metric standards in technical documentation, design, and quality control processes.
