English to Metric Conversions To meet the needs of an international audience, we have provided metric conversions for most of the English measures used in this book. <strong>The</strong> standard conversions we have used (sometimes rounded) are given below, Useful formulas are also provided. Lumber <strong>The</strong> English terminology for dimensional lumber is traditionally given as “nominal size”, not the actual dimension. <strong>The</strong> nominal size is the dimension of the rough-sawn, green lumber. When dried and surfaced, the lumber dimensions become smaller (the actual dimension). Metric dimensions are actual dimensions, not nominal. English nominal English actual Metric dimension dimension dimension 1" � 2" 3 ⁄4" � 1 1 ⁄2" 19 mm� 38 mm 1" � 3" 3 ⁄4" � 2 1 ⁄2" 19 mm� 63 mm 1" � 4" 3 ⁄4" � 3 1 ⁄2" 19 mm� 89 mm 1" � 6" 3 ⁄4" � 5 1 ⁄2" 19 mm� 140 mm 2" � 4" 1 1 ⁄2" � 3 1 ⁄2" 38 mm� 89 mm 2" � 6" 1 1 ⁄2" � 5 1 ⁄2" 38 mm� 140 mm 2" � 12" 1 1 ⁄2" � 11 1 ⁄4" 38 mm� 286 mm Plywood Sheet size 4' � 8' 1200 mm � 2400 mm Plywood thickness English Metric 1 ⁄16" 1 mm 1 ⁄8" 3 mm 5 ⁄32" 4 mm 3 ⁄16" 5 mm 1 ⁄4" 6 mm 7 ⁄16" 7 mm 3 ⁄8" 9 mm 1 ⁄2" 12 mm 5 ⁄8" 15 mm 3 ⁄4" 18 mm Fiberglass 1 oz/yd2 = 33.94 g/m2 Examples: 4 oz/yd2 = 135 g/m2 6 oz/yd2 = 200 g/m2 9 oz/yd2 = 305 g/m2 10 oz/yd2 = 340 g/m2 12 oz/yd2 = 400 g/m2 Mass 1 pound (advp) = .45 kg 1 ounce (advp) = 28.35 g Temperature Fahrenheit to Celsius: (T F -32) � 0.5555 Example: Room temperature: 72°F = 22°C Pressure 1 pound per square inch (1 psi) = 6.9 kpa (kilopascals) 1 pound per square foot (1 psf) = 0.05 kpa Example: Atmospheric pressure: 30 psi = 207 kpa Coverage 1 ft2 /lb = .205 m2 /kg Example: Epoxy coverage in interlaminate glue joint: 13ft 2 /lb = 2.7m 2 /kg APPENDIX F
