What are Ksi and Megapascal

Definition of Ksi

Ksi, also known as kilopound per square inch, is a unit of pressure. One Ksi is equivalent to 1,000 pounds-force per square inch. It is primarily used in engineering and construction to measure tensile strength, yield strength, and other stress-related parameters in materials.

Definition of Megapascal

A Megapascal (MPa) is a metric unit for measuring pressure or stress. It is equal to one million pascals or one newton per square millimeter. Widely used in engineering, the MPa helps to express the strength of materials such as concrete and steel.
