What are Ton-force long per square foot and Torr

Definition of Ton-force long per square foot

A Ton-force long per square foot is a pressure unit representing the force of one long ton (2,240 pounds) exerted over an area of one square foot. This measurement is part of the British Imperial system and is commonly used in industries such as construction and engineering to describe loads or pressures where large values are expected.

Definition of Torr

The Torr is a unit of pressure based on an absolute scale, named after the Italian physicist Evangelista Torricelli. It is defined as exactly 1/760 of a standard atmosphere (atm), which equates to 133.3223684 pascals. The Torr is a convenient unit for scientists and engineers when measuring pressures close to atmospheric pressure.
