One lb/ft³ is approximately equal to 16.018 kg/m³.
Common Uses
This is the standard unit in the United States for describing the density of building materials, soil, and large volumes of liquid in civil engineering and construction.
What is g/cm³?
Gram per cubic centimeter (symbol: g/cm³) is a unit of density in the CGS (centimeter-gram-second) system.
One g/cm³ is exactly equal to 1,000 kg/m³.
Common Uses
This unit is very commonly used in chemistry and geology because many everyday materials (and water) have densities near 1 g/cm³. For example, the density of water at room temperature is approximately 1.0 g/cm³.
