pascal to pound-force per square foot
Please provide values below to convert pascal [Pa] to pound-force per square foot [psf], or change ↔.
pascal [Pa]
Definition: The SI unit of pressure, equal to one newton per square meter.
Historyandorigin: Named after Blaise Pascal, the pascal is the standard unit of pressure in the International System of Units (SI), introduced in the 17th century.
CurrentUse: Used globally in scientific, engineering, and industrial applications to measure pressure in gases and liquids.
funfact: The pascal is a very small unit of pressure, so kilopascals (kPa) and megapascals (MPa) are more commonly used in practical applications!
pound-force per square foot [psf]
Definition: A unit of pressure, equal to the pressure produced by one pound-force applied to an area of one square foot.
Historyandorigin: Used in the imperial system for larger-scale pressure measurements, especially in construction and civil engineering.
CurrentUse: Used to measure pressure on larger surfaces, such as the load on roofs or floors in buildings.
funfact: In construction, psf is used to measure the pressure exerted on buildings from snow, wind, and other environmental factors!
