About these 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.

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.
