pound-force per square foot to gigapascal
Please provide values below to convert pound-force per square foot [psf] to gigapascal [GPa], or change ↔.
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!
gigapascal [GPa]
Definition: A unit of pressure, equal to one billion pascals (1 GPa = 1,000,000,000 Pa).
Historyandorigin: The gigapascal is used for extremely high-pressure applications, typically in material science and deep geological studies.
CurrentUse: Used in scientific research and engineering for measuring high-pressure environments, such as those found in deep-sea exploration or the manufacturing of advanced materials.
funfact: Diamonds have a hardness that can be measured in gigapascals!
