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 Feet of water?
The foot of water (symbol: ftH₂O or ftH2O) is a non-SI unit of pressure based on the pressure exerted by a one-foot column of water under standard gravity. It is commonly used in plumbing, HVAC systems, fluid mechanics, and water distribution networks to measure relatively low pressures. Although the pascal is the SI unit of pressure, the foot of water remains widely used in engineering applications involving liquids. More information can be found in the water column reference.
One foot of water is equal to 2,989.07 pascals, 12 inches of water, 0.0298907 bar, 0.433527 psi, and 0.029503 standard atmosphere. The foot of water is widely used for measuring hydrostatic and fluid system pressures.
