Giganewton [GN]
Giganewton is a large unit of force in the International System of Units (SI).
1 giganewton (GN) equals 109 newtons.
This unit is used to express very large forces, such as those encountered in heavy engineering projects, large-scale structures, or significant natural forces like earthquakes.
To put it in perspective:
1 GN=1,000,000,000 N=109 N
Giganewtons help quantify forces far beyond everyday scales but smaller than teranewtons and above.
