Conversion Formulas

The conversion formulas between Newton per Square Millimeter (N/mm²) and Pound Per Square Foot (psf) are as follows:

1. To convert N/mm² to psf, multiply the value in N/mm² by 20885.43.

psf=N/mm²×20885.43

2. To convert psf to N/mm², multiply the value in psf by 0.00004788026.

N/mm²=psf×0.00004788026

Examples

1. Convert 14 N/mm² to psf:

14 N/mm²×20885.43=292396.1 psf

2. Convert 8 psf to N/mm²:

8 psf×0.00004788026=0.0003830421 N/mm²

3. Convert 10 N/mm² to psf:

10 N/mm²×208854.3=208854.3 psf

Overall, these conversion formulas provide a simple way to interchange between Newton per Square Millimeter (N/mm²) and Pound Per Square Foot (psf) for various engineering and construction applications.
