1. Theoretical weight of tower steel
The weight of steel per unit length or area for a specific specification is known as the theoretical weight per unit length of that specification steel. Angle iron, channel iron, steel pipe, flat steel, etc., are typically referenced by their theoretical weight per 1 meter in length. Plate steel is referenced by its theoretical weight per square meter of area. The theoretical weight of the actual item is calculated by multiplying the actual length by the theoretical weight per unit length or the actual area by the theoretical weight per unit area.
