What is Pressure?
Pressure is the force applied perpendicular to a surface per unit area: P = F / A. The SI unit is the pascal (Pa), equal to one newton per square metre (1 Pa = 1 N/m²). Practical applications use larger units: the bar (1 bar = 100,000 Pa, close to standard atmospheric pressure), atmosphere (atm) (1 atm = 101,325 Pa), and psi (pounds per square inch, used in the US for tire and gas pressures). Blood pressure is measured in mmHg (millimetres of mercury), also called torr.
What is Metric Ton-force per Square Foot?
The metric ton-force per square foot (symbol: tf/ft²) is a non-SI unit of pressure representing one metric ton-force applied over an area of one square foot. It is occasionally used in structural engineering, foundation design, and heavy construction projects where Imperial area units are combined with metric force units. The unit is based on the metric ton-force.
One metric ton-force per square foot is equal to 105,557.9021 pascals, 105.5579021 kilopascals, 1.055579021 bars, 2,204.622622 pounds per square foot, and 2.204622622 kip force per square foot. This unit is occasionally encountered in structural load calculations and heavy engineering applications.
What is Centimeter of Mercury?
The centimeter of mercury (symbol: cmHg) is a non-SI unit of pressure based on the pressure exerted by a one-centimeter column of mercury under standard gravity. It has traditionally been used in scientific instruments, laboratory measurements, and vacuum systems. Although the pascal is the SI unit of pressure, the centimeter of mercury is still encountered in specialized applications. It is closely related to the Torr and other mercury-based pressure units.
One centimeter of mercury is equal to 1,333.22 pascals, 10 millimeters of mercury, 0.0133322 bar, 0.193367 psi, and 0.0131579 standard atmosphere. This unit remains useful for comparing pressure values in traditional measurement systems.
