UnitsCalc is an Excel 97/2000 Template for the conversion of measurements among units of physics and mechanics
used by engineers and architects in the building trade.

The systems of units covered are: British Imperial System, French Metric System, U.S. Customary System, the
International System of Units and some other units used in practice e.g. navigation, astronomy, etc.

Features
¨ The file size is under 500 KB. At 3 KB/second, your download time would be around 4 minutes.
¨ A mouse click converts a known measurement from any one unit to rest of the units in a convesion table.
¨ Conversion values can be copied to the clipboard for use elsewhere..
¨ Help button for instant instructions of use.
¨ Control for decimal places in normal size numbers.
¨ Full Documentation is included within the template i.e. Features, Consistent Set of Units, User Notes, Terms and
Conditions of Use and Revision History of the Template.

Unit Quantities
¨ Acceleration:
Free fall (g), Kilometres/hour/minute, Kilometres/hour/second, Metre/sec/sec, Centimetres/sec/Sec,
Miles/hour/minute, Miles/hour/second, Yards/sec/sec, Feet/sec/sec, Inches/sec/sec, Int. Nautical Mile/hour/second,
UK Nautical Miles/hour/second

¨ Angle (Plane):
Seconds, Minutes, Degrees, Grads, Octants, Sextants, Radians, Quadrants, Circles, Revolutions, Turns
¨ Angle (Solid):

Introduction

UnitsCalc is an interactive Excel Template for conversion of measurements among various

units. It deals with unit systems of the past and those in use today. The established
systems of units covered are: British Imperial System (BIS), French Metric System, U.S.
Customary System (USCS) and International System of units SI. In addition, various other
units commonly used in practice are also included.

To allow ready conversation of measurements from one system to the other, it has been
necessary in some tables to group unlike quantities like mass and force. This has been
inevitable due to the difference in fundamental quantities on which the unit systems are
based. In the Metric and SI systems, mass is a fundamental quantity. In the BIS and the
USCS systems, mass is not a fundamental quantity but a derived unit based on force as a
fundamental quantity.

Similar to the mass and weight table, speed and velocity have also been grouped together
in one table. To keep the file size of UnitsCalc small, the fact that velocity has a direction
and speed is directionless has been ignored.

In short, UnitsCalc is a simple tool for the conversion of measurement units in use on the
planet earth. As the mixture of these units employ different fundamental quantities in mass
and force, the user needs to exercise care in using these units correctly. To this end, study
of the next worksheet "Consistent Set of Units" might be found helpful.

Loading the Template on to your Computer

UnitsCalc is supplied as an Excel 97/2000 Template, having .XLT as its filename extension.

To load UnitsCalc on to your computer, copy this file into Microsoft Office folder for its
Templates. Generally the path to this folder in Excel 97 is:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Templates

If you are using Excel 2000, the path to this folder is:
C:\Windows\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates

To load and use the Template in Excel 97 or Excel 2000, choose:

File, New and the select the file UnitsCalc20011205-.xlt

If you receive an Excel Warning about running Macros and are prompted for whether to load
them, answer YES to Load and Enable Macros. UnitsCalc incorporates VB Macros and to
allow your computer to use them is vital for its operation.

Using UnitsCalc

¨ Loading of UnitsCalc in Excel leads to its Homepage. This page displays command buttons
to all conversion tables and documentation pages in UnitsCalc. Clicking a button displays
any desired conversion table or documentation page.

¨ To convert a measurement from any one unit to its equivalent in rest of the units, type your
value in cell C2 (shaded light green). After pressing enter/return, use a mouse click in any
desired cell of Column-C to select your original unit. The mouse click changes row colour of
your original unit to yellow and instantly converts the measurement in cell C2 to its
equivalents in respective rows of all other units (cells shaded light blue).

¨ To display simple conversion factors from any one unit to rest of the units, you can type a
value of 1 in cell C2 (shaded light green) as your measurement.

¨ To navigate among various conversion tables, click the Home button in top left cell of the
table. This takes you to the Homepage of UnitsCalc for going to other conversion tables.

¨ To copy a converted value to the Clipboard, click its unit name in right column of the
conversion table. This displays a dialog box showing the value copied to the clipboard.
Click OK in this dialog box. The copied value can now be pasted in another worksheet or
application e.g. MS word.

¨ In converse to the above, a conversion value can be pasted in Cell C2 from another
worksheet or application via the clipboard. However, please use the Paste-Special - value
command rather than the simple Paste Command. The Paste command erases the cell
colour and its data validation capability.

¨ When ending a session of UnitsCalc, Excel displays a dialogue box for saving the UnitsCalc
file. Select "NO" to this option as changes to the UnitsCal file do not require saving.

 Consistent Set of Units

In dynamic analysis of structures, it is essential to use a consistent set of units. This means that in
calculations Newton's second law, force equal mass times acceleration, is identically satisfied without
using scale or conversion factors.

In a consistent set of units, one unit of force applied to one unit of mass must equal to one unit of
acceleration i.e.

1 unit force = 1 unit mass x 1 unit acceleration

A correct dynamic analysis demands using consistent units. To avoid errors, Blevins [1] suggests using
any of the following consistent set of units.

No Force Mass Length Time Pressure Density g

1 Newton kg m s Pascal kilogram/m3 9.80665 m/s2
2 kgf kg/g m s kgf/m2 kilogram/g-m3 9.80665 m/s2
3 kgf kg/g cm s kgf/cm2 kilogram/g-cm3 980.665 cm/s2
4 dyne gram cm s dyne/cm2 gram/cm3 980.665 cm/s2
5 gramf gram/g cm s gramf/cm2 gram/g-cm3 980.665 cm/s2
6 lbf slug ft s lbf/ft2 slug/ft3 32.17 ft/s2
7 lbf lbf/g in s lbf/in2 pound/g-in3 386.1 in/s2

It is also possible to use other sets of units. For example, if kN is chosen as the unit of force and one
m/s2 as the unit of acceleration, then the unit of mass must be such that 1 kN of force will accelerate it
at 1 m/s2. The unit of mass that satisfies this criteria is 1 Tonne i.e. 1000 kilograms (Mg).
