About foot-pound force
The foot-pound force is a unit of energy or work equal to 1.3558179 joules (1 ft-lbf = 1.3558179 J), the SI derived unit of energy.
The foot-pound force (ft-lbf) is also equal to 1.3558179 × 109 nanojoules (nJ), or 0.0013558179 kilojoules (kJ), or 1.3558179 × 107 ergs (erg), or 32.1740474 foot-poundal (ft-pdl) or 12 inch-pound force (in-lbf).
The foot-pound force is the work done when a force of one pound-force acts over a distance of one foot.
1 ft-lbf = 1 lbf × 1 ft
The pound-force (lbf) is a unit of force while the foot (ft) is a unit of length.
Symbol: ft-lbf
Plural: foot-pounds force
Also known as: foot-pound (plural: foot-pounds, abbreviation: ft-lb, ft lb)
