About these units

Poundals

A poundal (pdl) is a unit of force in the foot-pound-second (FPS) system, equal to about 0.138 newtons. It is used in some engineering and physics applications to measure force in non-SI units.

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.
