Kilogram Per Centimeter Cube (abbreviations: kg/cm2, or kgpcm2): is the SI derived unit of pressure used to quantify internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus and ultimate tensile strength interms of kilogram per centimeter cube.
Kilopound Per Square Foot (abbreviations: ksf, or kips/ft2): is a British (Imperial) and American pressure unit which is directly related to the ksi pressure unit by a factor of 144 (1 sq ft = 12 in x 12 in = 144 sq in). Where, 1 kilopound per square foot equals 47.8803 kilopascals.
How to Convert Kilograms Per Centimeters Cube to Kilopounds Per Square Feet
Example: How many kilopounds per square feet are equivalent to 87.28 kilograms per centimeters cube?
As;
1 kilograms per centimeters cube = 2.048126984127 kilopounds per square feet
87.28 kilograms per centimeters cube = Y kilopounds per square feet
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 87.28 times 2.048126984127 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 87.28 * 2.048126984127 / 1 = 178.7605231746 kilopounds per square feet
Answer is: 178.7605231746 kilopounds per square feet are equivalent to 87.28 kilograms per centimeters cube.
