Kilopound [kip]


The kilopound, commonly abbreviated as kip, is a unit of force used primarily in the United States in engineering and construction.



  • 1 kip = 1,000 pounds-force (lbf)



  • Equivalent to approximately 4,448.22 newtons (N)



  • Used to measure large forces, such as loads on structures or machinery.



Key Facts:



  • 1 kip = 1,000 lbf



  • Convenient for expressing large forces without writing many zeros



  • Commonly used in civil and structural engineering, especially in the U.S.



The kip simplifies communication and calculation of large forces in engineering projects.



Ton (Assay) (US) [AT (US)]


The assay ton (AT) is a specialized unit of weight used in the mining and precious metals industries in the United States. It is primarily used to measure ore quantities for assaying, which is the process of analyzing the metal content of ore samples.


One assay ton equals 29.1667 pounds (about 13.23 kilograms), which is different from the standard short ton (2,000 pounds). This smaller ton unit allows for more precise measurements in evaluating the value of ore deposits.


The assay ton helps miners and metallurgists accurately calculate the concentration of valuable metals like gold and silver in ores.
