Kilonewton Meter
kN·m
Definition
The kilonewton meter (kN·m) is a unit of moment of force equal to 1000 newton meters. It is commonly used in structural engineering and large-scale mechanical applications where higher torque values are involved.
History/Origin
This unit is derived from the newton meter with the kilo- prefix, providing a convenient measure for large moment of force values in structural engineering and heavy machinery applications.
Current Use
Frequently used in structural engineering, construction, and heavy machinery for measuring large torques, bending moments, and rotational forces in buildings, bridges, and industrial equipment.

Ton-Force (Short) Meter
tf·m (short)
Definition
The ton-force (short) meter is a unit of moment of force based on the short ton (2000 pounds) and meter. It is commonly used in American engineering applications for measuring large torques and moments.
History/Origin
This unit combines the short ton (US customary unit) with the meter (SI unit), providing a measure for large moment of force values in American engineering and construction applications.
Current Use
Used in American engineering, construction, and heavy machinery for measuring large torques, bending moments, and rotational forces in structural applications and industrial equipment.
