Enter the total area of the space or object (ft^2) and the cross-sectional density (lbs/ft^2) into the Area to Weight Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Area to Weight.

## Area to Weight Formula

The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Area to Weight.

W = A * CD

Variables:

• W is the Area to Weight (lbs)
• A is the total area of the space or object (ft^2)
• CD is the cross-sectional density (lbs/ft^2)

To calculate the weight from area, multiply the area by the cross-sectional density.

## How to Calculate Area to Weight?

The following steps outline how to calculate the Area to Weight.

1. First, determine the total area of the space or object (ft^2).
2. Next, determine the cross-sectional density (lbs/ft^2).
3. Next, gather the formula from above = W = A * CD.
4. Finally, calculate the Area to Weight.
5. After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.

Example Problem :

Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.

total area of the space or object (ft^2) = 35

cross-sectional density (lbs/ft^2) = 37

W = A * CD = ?
