it depends on the structure, but to be safe is 200 kgs per m3

if its the weight of concrete/m3 it is 2400 kg/m3.If u want to calculate the reinforcement required it should calculated separately as per the unit,it varies from suppose footing,columns,beams.slabs etc etc.u cannot have a thumb rule for steel calculation as it depends on the type of structure,but as such for a villa type of structure u can take the steel qty as150 kg/m3 of concrete.But better to evaluate the steel as per the section of the member

Then it will depend on the concrete mix and use to which it will be put. This will determine bar spacing and size. Unless you are a qualified civil engineer, don't even think of guessing!
