    This document provides metric conversion factors for common units used in steel design according to the AISC specification. It lists units for length, mass, stress, moment, energy, force, temperature, and gravitational acceleration. Conversion factors are provided to convert between inches to millimeters, feet to meters, pounds-mass to kilograms, ksi to megapascals, kip-inches to newton-meters, foot-pounds to joules, kips to newtons, pounds per square foot to pascals, and pounds per linear foot to newtons per meter. It also provides the formula to convert between Fahrenheit and Celsius temperatures.

    METRIC CONVERSION FACTORS 16.1-619

    Metric Conversion Factors for


    Common Steel Design Units Used in the
    AISC Specification
    Unit Multiply By to Obtain
    length inch (in.) 25.4 millimeters (mm)
    length foot (ft) 0.304 8 meters (m)
    mass pound-mass (lbm) 0.453 6 kilogram (kg)
    stress ksi 6.895 megapascals (MPa), N/mm2
    moment kip-in 113 000 N-mm
    energy ft-lbf 1.356 joule (J)
    force kip (1000 lbf) 4 448 newton (N)
    force psf 47.88 pascal (Pa), N/m2
    force plf 14.59 N/m
    temperature To convert °F to °C: t c ° = (t f ° − 32)/1.8
    force in lbf or N = mass × g
    where g, acceleration due to gravity = 32.2 ft/sec2 = 9.81 m/sec2
