Converting from Pound Per Square Foot (psf) to Foot of Water (ftH₂0)

What is Pound Per Square Foot (psf)

Pound Per Square Foot (psf) is a unit of pressure that measures the force exerted in pounds per square foot of area. It is commonly used in engineering and construction to measure pressure exerted on a surface.

What is Foot of Water (ftH₂0)

Foot of Water (ftH₂0) is a unit of pressure that measures the height of a column of water that exerts a specific pressure at the base. It is often used in hydrology and fluid mechanics to measure pressure in terms of the height of a water column.
