Discover the ease of converting Ksi to pound-force per square foot (psf) with our user-friendly tool. Developed by Newtum, get precise conversions in a click!
Ksi, or kilopound per square inch, is a unit of pressure. It represents a thousand pounds of force applied over one square inch of area, used primarily in engineering to measure tensile and yield strength.
Definition of Pound-force/square footPound-force per square foot is a unit of pressure. It quantifies the force of one pound exerted on an area of one square foot, often utilised in construction and engineering to evaluate stress and load.
| Ksi | Pound-force/square foot (psf) |
|---|---|
| 0.001 Ksi | 144 psf |
| 0.005 Ksi | 720 psf |
| 0.01 Ksi | 1440 psf |
| 0.05 Ksi | 7200 psf |
| 0.1 Ksi | 14400 psf |
| 0.5 Ksi | 72000 psf |
| 1 Ksi | 144000 psf |
| 5 Ksi | 720000 psf |
| 10 Ksi | 1440000 psf |
| 50 Ksi | 7200000 psf |
Example 1:
Convert 0.1 Ksi to psf:
0.1 Ksi = 0.1 × 144000 psf = 14400 psf
Example 2:
Convert 0.5 Ksi to psf:
0.5 Ksi = 0.5 × 144000 psf = 72000 psf
