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 Pound Force Per Square Inch?
The pound force per square inch (symbol: psi or lbf/in2) is a non-SI unit of pressure equal to one pound-force applied over an area of one square inch. It is one of the most widely used pressure units in the United States for measuring tire pressure, hydraulic systems, compressed gases, and industrial equipment. Although the pascal is the SI unit of pressure, the psi remains the preferred unit in many engineering applications. More information is available in the pounds per square inch article.
One pound force per square inch is equal to 6,894.76 pascals, 6.89476 kilopascals, 0.0689476 bar, 0.068046 standard atmosphere, and 0.0703069 kilogram-force per square centimetre. The psi is one of the world's most recognized units for measuring pressure.
