That depends on whether you are talking about the RMS or HMHS version. Either way we can only estimate.

In her HMHS configuration, several key items were missing; lifeboats, gantry davits + machinery, decor etc. Her weight would have been around 48,0000 GRT according to various sources.

Had she been completed, her weight would have probably been increased by about 2,000 GRT, therefore her final weight would have been around the 50,000 GRT mark.

Perhaps someone with more specific weight information can answer this better.
