Imperial and metric system

Unit Systems

HeavyGoods supports two unit systems:

  • The metric system, also referred to as the International System of Units (SI)

  • The Anglo-American unit system, also referred to as Imperial Units or US Customary Units

Automatic Conversion

To switch between unit systems, click on the current language in the top-right corner (e.g. English) and then toggle between Metric and Imperial.

All displayed lengths (e.g. metres and millimetres vs. feet and inches), mass values (e.g. kilograms vs. pounds), and pressures (e.g. bar vs. psi) are converted automatically.

This applies to form fields, inspection reports, and dimensioned drawings.
