What is the Formula to convert Kip-Force to Metric Ton-Force?

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

Force(Metric Ton-Force) = Force(Kip-Force) × 0.4535923699994033

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 metric ton-force, i.e., Force(Metric Ton-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 Metric Ton-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 metric ton-force is:

Force(Metric Ton-Force) = Force(Kip-Force) × 0.4535923699994033

Substitution:

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

Force(Metric Ton-Force) = 4 × 0.4535923699994033

Force(Metric Ton-Force) = 1.8144

Final Answer:

Therefore, 4 kipf is equal to 1.8144 tf.

The force of construction beam is 1.8144 tf, in metric ton-force.

2

Consider a bridge that can bear 10 kip-force at its central span.
Convert this force from kip-force to Metric Ton-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 metric ton-force is:

Force(Metric Ton-Force) = Force(Kip-Force) × 0.4535923699994033

Substitution:

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

Force(Metric Ton-Force) = 10 × 0.4535923699994033

Force(Metric Ton-Force) = 4.5359

Final Answer:

Therefore, 10 kipf is equal to 4.5359 tf.

The force of bridge is 4.5359 tf, in metric ton-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.

Metric Ton-Force

Ton-force represents the force exerted by the weight of one metric ton under standard gravity. It’s used for measuring very large forces, such as the force exerted by a building structure or a piece of heavy machinery. It’s a convenient way to represent massive loads encountered in engineering and construction.
