Weight Per Foot Formula
The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Weight Per Foot.
WPF = W / L
Variables:
- WPF is the Weight Per Foot (lbs/ft)
- W is the total weight (lbs)
- L is the total length (ft)
To calculate the weight per foot, divide the weight by the length in feet.
How to Calculate Weight Per Foot?
The following steps outline how to calculate the Weight Per Foot.
- First, determine the total weight (lbs).
- Next, determine the total length (ft).
- Next, gather the formula from above = WPF = W / L.
- Finally, calculate the Weight Per Foot.
- After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.
