The pound per square inch (abbreviation: psi) or, more accurately, pound-force per square inch (symbol: lbf/in 2), [1] is a unit of measurement of pressure or of stress based on avoirdupois units and used primarily in the United States. It is the pressure resulting from a force with magnitude of one pound-force applied to an area of one square ...

The standard atmosphere was originally defined as the pressure exerted by a 760 mm column of mercury at 0 °C (32 °F) and standard gravity (g n = 9.806 65 m/s 2). [2] It was used as a reference condition for physical and chemical properties, and the definition of the centigrade temperature scale set 100 °C as the boiling point of water at this pressure.
The SI unit for pressure is the pascal (Pa), equal to one newton per square metre (N/m 2, or kg·m −1 ·s −2). This name for the unit was added in 1971; [6] before that, pressure in SI was expressed in newtons per square metre. Other units of pressure, such as pounds per square inch (lbf/in 2) and bar, are also in common use.
