'''Weight''', or sometimes more correctly termed '''mass''', is an item property, and is measured in the unit ''Γ'', also sometimes known as ''urists'', or more commonly as the ''kilogram'', its equivalent real-life unit.

The general form for calculating weight in DF is to take the material [[density]] (as found in the raws) multiplied by the item's volume.
 
The general form for calculating weight in DF is to take the material [[density]] (as found in the raws) multiplied by the item's volume.
  
:Weight (in Γ) = Density (in kg/m<sup>3</sup>) * Volume (in cm<sup>3</sup>) / 1,000,000 (cm<sup>3</sup>/m<sup>3</sup>)
+
:Weight (in Γ) = Density (in kg/m<sup>3</sup>) * Volume*10 (in cm<sup>3</sup>) / 1,000,000 (cm<sup>3</sup>/m<sup>3</sup>)
 
 
Internally, all custom volume/capacity numbers are rounded ''down'' to the nearest multiple of 10 - thus, if you define a tool with [SIZE:15], it will actually behave as if you had specified [SIZE:10].
 
  
 
An item's volume is also used to determine workshop [[clutter]] as well as how many items can fit into a container.

Weight displayed in-game is rounded down to a whole number.
