kN
kilonewton
Forceexact by definition
The kilonewton is exactly 1000 newtons. The factor is exact, being a pure SI prefix. It is the practical unit of structural engineering, since a mass of one tonne weighs 9.80665 kN under standard gravity and building loads are naturally in the tens to thousands of kN.
