Key Formulas
Pound per Sq. Inch → Bar
bar = psi × 0.0689476Bar → Pound per Sq. Inch
psi = bar × 14.5038Atmosphere → Pound per Sq. Inch
psi = atm × 14.6959Pound per Sq. Inch → Atmosphere
atm = psi × 0.068046Formula
MPa = Pa ÷ 1000000A megapascal is one million pascals — used for high-pressure applications like hydraulic systems, concrete strength (1 MPa ≈ 145 psi), and geotechnical engineering. Structural engineers specify concrete strength in MPa, and materials testing reports use MPa for yield strength and ultimate tensile strength.
