slug·ft²

slug square foot

Moment of inertiaexact by definition

The slug square foot is exactly 1.3558179483314004 kg·m². It is the coherent inertia unit of US customary aerospace and vehicle dynamics: aircraft roll, pitch and yaw inertias are tabulated in slug·ft², and so are vehicle yaw inertias in accident reconstruction.

Watch out: The pound square foot already in the catalog is built on the pound of MASS and is 32.174 times smaller. Both get written "lb-ft²" in sloppy documents.
