Maximum steel percentage is equal to 1.0 percent
Steel Quantity is equal to (1.0/100) x 1 is equal to 0.01 m3
Steel Weight is equal to 0.01 x 7850 is equal to 78.5 kg/m3

Beam

Minimum steel percentage is equal to 1.0 percent
Steel Quantity is equal to (1.0/100) x 1 is equal to 0.01 m3
Steel Weight is equal to 0.01 x 7850 is equal to 78.5 kg /m3

Maximum steel percentage is equal to 2.0 percent
Steel Quantity is equal to (2.0/100) x 1 is equal to 0.02 m3
Steel Weight is equal to 0.02 x 7850 is equal to 157 kg/m3

Column

Minimum steel percentage is equal to 0.8 percent
Steel Quantity is equal to (0.8/100) x 1 is equal to 0.008 m3
Steel Weight is equal to 0.008 x 7850 is equal to 62.80 kg/m3

Maximum steel percentage is equal to 6.0 percent
Steel Quantity is equal to (6.0/100) x 1 is equal to 0.06 m3
Steel Weight is equal to 0.06 x 7850 is equal to 471 kg/m3

Foundation

Minimum steel percentage is equal to 0.50 percent
Steel Quantity is equal to (0.50/100) x 1 is equal to 0.005 m3
Steel Weight is equal to 0.005 x 7850 is equal to 39.25 kg/m3

Maximum steel percentage is equal to 0.8 percent
Steel Quantity is equal to (1.0/100) x 1 is equal to 0.008 m3
Steel Weight is equal to 0.008 x 7850 is equal to 62.80 kg/m3
