- kPa = tf/ft² ÷ 0.009473473612
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 Kilopascal?
The kilopascal (symbol: kPa) is an SI-derived unit of pressure equal to one thousand (103) pascals. It is one of the most widely used pressure units in engineering, meteorology, automotive systems, construction, and scientific research. The kilopascal provides a practical scale for measuring atmospheric pressure, tire pressure, and fluid pressure. It uses the SI prefix kilo, representing a factor of one thousand.
One kilopascal is equal to 1,000 pascals, 0.01 bar, 0.001 megapascal, 0.145038 psi, and 0.00986923 standard atmosphere. The kilopascal is the preferred SI unit for many everyday and industrial pressure measurements.
