What is Specific Weight?
Specific weight, also known as unit weight, is the weight of a material per unit volume. It is measured in units such as newton per cubic meter (N/m³) and kilonewton per cubic meter (kN/m³). Unlike mass density, specific weight depends on gravitational acceleration because it is based on weight rather than mass.
Specific weight is widely used in civil engineering, geotechnical engineering, hydraulics, fluid mechanics, and construction to calculate structural loads, earth pressure, buoyancy, and hydrostatic forces.
What is Pound-force per Cubic Foot?
Pound-force per cubic foot (symbol: lbf/ft³) is an Imperial and US customary unit of specific weight that expresses the gravitational force, in pound-force, exerted by a material occupying one cubic foot of volume. It measures weight per unit volume rather than mass per unit volume.
The pound-force per cubic foot is widely used in civil engineering, geotechnical engineering, hydraulics, construction, and material science in countries that use the Imperial or US customary system. It can be converted directly to and from other specific weight units such as newton per cubic meter, kilonewton per cubic meter, kilogram-force per cubic meter, and pound-force per cubic inch.
What is Gram-force per Cubic Centimeter?
Gram-force per cubic centimeter (symbol: gf/cm³) is a metric unit of specific weight that expresses the gravitational force, in gram-force, exerted by a material occupying one cubic centimeter of volume. It measures weight per unit volume rather than mass per unit volume and is primarily used in engineering calculations and historical technical literature.
Although the SI unit of specific weight is the newton per cubic meter (N/m³), gram-force per cubic centimeter is occasionally used in educational materials and older engineering references. It can be converted directly to and from other specific weight units such as newton per cubic meter, kilonewton per cubic meter, kilogram-force per cubic meter, and pound-force per cubic foot.
