About these units

Kilopound-Force

Kilopound-force (kipf) is another term for kip-force, which represents 1,000 pounds of force. It is a unit frequently used in structural analysis and design in engineering to simplify large force calculations.

Hectonewtons

A hectonewton (hN) is equal to 100 newtons. It’s a relatively uncommon unit of force but can be useful when dealing with intermediate-scale forces that fall between kilonewtons and newtons. It might be used in measuring the force applied by certain mechanical devices.
