- Alternative Method – Division: If you prefer not to multiply, you can achieve the same conversion by dividing the metric ton-force per square meter value by 0.01. This alternative method also gives you the correct pressure in centimeter of waters.
- Illustration of Division:
- cmH2O = tf/m² ÷ 0.01
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 Meter?
The metric ton-force per square meter (symbol: tf/m²) is a non-SI unit of pressure representing the pressure exerted by one metric ton-force distributed over one square meter. It is commonly used in geotechnical engineering, foundation design, and soil bearing capacity calculations. Although the pascal is the SI unit of pressure, the metric ton-force per square meter remains widely recognized in construction and civil engineering.
One metric ton-force per square meter is equal to 9,806.65 pascals, 9.80665 kilopascals, 0.0980665 bar, 204.816 pounds per square foot, and 1,000 kilogram-force per square meter. The unit is widely used for reporting allowable soil pressure and distributed structural loads.
What is Centimeter of water?
The centimeter of water (symbol: cmH₂O) is a non-SI unit of pressure defined as the pressure exerted by a one-centimeter column of water under standard gravity. It is widely used in medical equipment, ventilation systems, HVAC engineering, and fluid mechanics because it provides a practical scale for measuring relatively low pressures. The unit is derived from the hydrostatic pressure of water and is described alongside other pressure units in the centimeter of water reference.
One centimeter of water is equal to 98.0665 pascals, 10 millimeters of water, 0.000980665 bar, 0.0142233 psi, and 0.000967841 standard atmosphere. The centimeter of water is commonly used whenever accurate measurement of low pressure is required.
