Description

Kilogram-force per Square Centimeter (kgf/cm²): Engineering Pressure Unit

The Kilogram-force per Square Centimeter (kgf/cm²) is a metric unit of pressure commonly used in engineering, particularly in Asia and Europe. It is defined as the pressure resulting from one kilogram-force acting on an area of one square centimeter. Equivalent to 98,066.5 Pascals, this unit is useful in expressing hydraulic pressures and the strength of construction materials. Although not an SI unit, it remains prevalent due to its practical value in mechanical engineering calculations.

The Megapascal (MPa) in Engineering

The Megapascal (MPa) is a unit of pressure equal to one million Pascals. It is extensively used in engineering fields to measure high pressures, such as those found in hydraulic systems, material strength testing, and geotechnical engineering. For example, the tensile strength of structural steel is often expressed in MPa. This unit allows for the convenient representation of large pressure values without resorting to scientific notation.
