Unit Description

Pound per Cubic Foot (lb/ft³)

Definition

Pound per cubic foot (lb/ft³) is a unit of density expressing the mass in pounds contained in one cubic foot of volume. It's one of the most commonly used density units in imperial systems for construction and engineering applications.

History

The lb/ft³ unit evolved from traditional English measurements and became standard in American construction and engineering. It provided a convenient scale for measuring building materials, with many common materials having easily remembered values in this unit.

Current Use

Lb/ft³ is extensively used in the United States for construction materials, HVAC calculations, structural engineering, and building codes. It's standard for measuring density of wood, concrete, insulation, and other building materials in American construction industry.

Gram per Milliliter (g/mL)

Definition

Gram per milliliter (g/mL) is a unit of density expressing the mass in grams contained in one milliliter of volume. It is numerically equivalent to grams per cubic centimeter and is commonly used for liquids and small volume measurements.

History

The g/mL unit emerged with the development of the metric system and became particularly important in chemistry and medicine. It gained prominence as laboratory work required precise density measurements for solutions, pharmaceuticals, and chemical compounds in small volumes.

Current Use

G/mL is extensively used in chemistry, pharmacology, medicine, and laboratory sciences. It's standard for measuring density of solutions, medications, biological fluids, and chemical reagents. Medical laboratories use it for urine specific gravity, blood components, and pharmaceutical preparations.
