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.
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.
How to Convert Kilopounds Per Square Feet to Kilograms Per Centimeters Cube
Example: How many kilograms per centimeters cube are equivalent to 47.72 kilopounds per square feet?
As;
1 kilopounds per square feet = 0.48825097650195 kilograms per centimeters cube
47.72 kilopounds per square feet = Y kilograms per centimeters cube
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 47.72 times 0.48825097650195 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 47.72 * 0.48825097650195 / 1 = 23.299336598673 kilograms per centimeters cube
Answer is: 23.299336598673 kilograms per centimeters cube are equivalent to 47.72 kilopounds per square feet.
