Converting from Pound per cubic foot (lb/ft³) to Tonne per cubic meter (t/m³)

What is Pound per cubic foot (lb/ft³)

Pound per cubic foot (lb/ft³) is a unit of density that measures the mass of one pound per volume of one cubic foot. It is commonly used in various industries to quantify the density of materials.

What is Tonne per cubic meter (t/m³)

Tonne per cubic meter (t/m³), on the other hand, is a metric unit of density that represents the mass of one metric tonne per volume of one cubic meter. This unit is frequently utilized in scientific and engineering calculations.

Conversion Formulas

To convert from pound per cubic foot (lb/ft³) to tonne per cubic meter (t/m³), you can use the following formula:

t/m3=lb/ft3×0.01601846

And to convert from tonne per cubic meter (t/m³) to pound per cubic foot (lb/ft³), the formula is:

lb/ft3=t/m3×62.42796

Examples

1. Converting 12 lb/ft³ to t/m³:

12×0.01601846=0.1922216t/m3

2. Converting 5 t/m³ to lb/ft³:

5×624.2796=3121.398lb/ft3

3. Converting 10 lb/ft³ to t/m³:

10×0.01601846=0.1601846t/m3
