About these units
Dekanewtons
A dekanewton (daN) represents 10 newtons of force. It is a convenient unit for representing forces in contexts where newtons are too small, but kilonewtons are too large. Dekanewtons are occasionally used in mechanical and engineering applications.
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.
