I screwed up again, didn't I?
How *do* I convert "metres per square feet" to "pounds per square feet"
really?
m/ft² -> lb/ft² ?
That does not make sense, or do you still mean m² -> ft²?
Er, no mixed it up (again! ;):
Yasim usess a mix of unit systems: pounds for mass, but metres for lengths
So moment of inertia becomes "pounds per square metre", which doesn't make
anyone happy.
I'm quite sure my conversion to kg/m² is correct (the values I get looks
sane), but numbers in pounds, slugs, gallons, feet etc are about as
meaningful to me as if they were given in "yellow striped hedgehogs per
square prostethnic waterfalls".
...think it should be divided by about ten rather than multiplied. ...?
