About the App
Kouzaitap(Metal Calculator) makes quick work of steel math. Pick a JIS shape or enter your own dimensions and get instant weight in kilograms plus surface area in square meters. It’s a practical, no-frills helper whether you’re checking a takeoff, planning coating, or doing a back-of-the-envelope sanity check—on your phone, tablet, or even on a desktop through BlueStacks.
App Features
- Fast weight calculations — Compute steel weight based on kg/m and kg/m². Enter key dimensions and get results immediately without hunting through tables.
- Surface area for coating — See the exterior area you’ll need for paint or galvanizing. If an area can’t be determined for a given input, the app clearly shows that it’s not calculated.
