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.
Petanewtons
A petanewton (PT) is equal to 1015 newtons. It’s an extremely large unit of force, mostly theoretical, used in astrophysics or high-energy physics to describe forces acting at a massive scale, such as between planets or in star formation.
