What is the Formula to convert Kip-Force to Pound-Force?

The formula to convert given force from Kip-Force to Pound-Force is:

Force(Pound-Force) = Force(Kip-Force) × 1000

Substitute the given value of force in kip-force, i.e., Force(Kip-Force) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the force in pound-force, i.e., Force(Pound-Force).

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider a construction beam withstanding a force of 4 kip-force.
Convert this force from kip-force to Pound-Force.

Answer:

Given:

The force of construction beam in kip-force is:

Force(Kip-Force) = 4

Formula:

The formula to convert force from kip-force to pound-force is:

Force(Pound-Force) = Force(Kip-Force) × 1000

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of construction beam, Force(Kip-Force) = 4 in the above formula.

Force(Pound-Force) = 4 × 1000

Force(Pound-Force) = 4000

Final Answer:

Therefore, 4 kipf is equal to 4000 lbf.

The force of construction beam is 4000 lbf, in pound-force.

2

Consider a bridge that can bear 10 kip-force at its central span.
Convert this force from kip-force to Pound-Force.

Answer:

Given:

The force of bridge in kip-force is:

Force(Kip-Force) = 10

Formula:

The formula to convert force from kip-force to pound-force is:

Force(Pound-Force) = Force(Kip-Force) × 1000

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of bridge, Force(Kip-Force) = 10 in the above formula.

Force(Pound-Force) = 10 × 1000

Force(Pound-Force) = 10000

Final Answer:

Therefore, 10 kipf is equal to 10000 lbf.

The force of bridge is 10000 lbf, in pound-force.

Kip-Force

A kip-force (kipf) is equal to 1,000 pounds-force. It is commonly used in structural engineering in the United States to describe the load-carrying capacity of structures and components.

Pound-Force

Pound-force (lbf) is the force exerted by gravity on a one-pound mass. It is a commonly used unit in the United States to describe everyday forces, such as the force exerted by objects or people.
