What are Gram-force sq. Centimeter and Ton-force short sq. Foot

The gram-force per square centimeter (gf/cm²) is a unit of pressure in the metric system. It measures force per unit area, with one gf/cm² equating to the pressure exerted by a one gram-force applied uniformly over an area of one square centimeter. This unit is not part of the International System of Units (SI) but is still used in some applications.

A ton-force (short) per square foot (tonf/ft²) is a unit of pressure used predominantly in the United States. It represents the pressure exerted by one short ton-force (2000 pounds-force) spread uniformly over an area of one square foot. This unit is commonly used in various engineering and construction contexts, especially in the US.
