Binding Wire Estimator – Steel Ties

Expert Guide
Babu

Estimate the quantity of GI binding wire required for secure tying of reinforcement bars.

⚡ Quick Answer

For every 100kg of TMT steel, you need approximately 1kg of binding wire. For a typical 10-tonne project, order 100kg (4 bundles) of 18 or 20 gauge wire.

🛠️ How It Works

Standard rule of thumb: 10 kg of binding wire is required for 1 tonne (1000 kg) of steel reinforcement. Now calculate it here → Steel Bar Weight Calculator

  • Enter the total weight of reinforcement steel in your project.
  • Choose the consumption rate (standard is 1kg per 100kg steel).
  • The tool calculates the total bundles or weight of wire required for the tying work.

📐 Calculation Formula

Wire (kg) = (Steel Weight / 100) × Rate

📋 Real-Life Example

1000kg steel at 1kg/100kg rate:
• Wire = 10 kg
