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 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.
What is Kip Force Per Square Inch?
The kip force per square inch (symbol: ksi) is a non-SI unit of pressure commonly used in structural engineering and material science. It represents the pressure exerted by one kip (1,000 pounds-force) acting on an area of one square inch. The ksi is widely used to express the yield strength, tensile strength, and compressive strength of steel, concrete, and other engineering materials.
One kip force per square inch is equal to 6,894,757.29 pascals, 6.89476 megapascals, 68.9476 bars, 1,000 pounds per square inch, and 68.0459 standard atmospheres. The ksi is the standard unit for reporting material strength in many engineering design codes.
