About Foot-Pound-Force

A foot-pound-force (ft·lbf) is the work done by one pound-force through one foot - exactly 1.3558179483314004 J. It is the standard torque and energy unit in US engineering. Automotive engine torque: Honda Civic ~125 lb-ft; Ford F-150 EcoBoost ~500 lb-ft. Muzzle energies: .22 LR ~140 ft·lbf; .308 Winchester ~2,600 ft·lbf; .50 BMG ~14,000 ft·lbf. Diesel pile hammers deliver 15,000-600,000 ft·lbf/blow. SAE Grade 8 bolts are specified at 7-950 ft·lbf. 1 ft·lbf = 12 in·lbf = 1.35582 J = 0.32405 cal.

About Ton of Oil Equivalent

A ton of oil equivalent (toe) is the IEA standard for comparing primary energy sources - defined as exactly 41.868 GJ (= 10⁷ International Table kcal). IEA World Energy Balances report in Mtoe: global primary energy supply is ~580 EJ ≈ 13,860 Mtoe/year. One tonne of coal equivalent (tce) = 29.307 GJ = 0.7 toe. Natural gas: ~0.9 toe per 1,000 m³; one barrel of crude oil ≈ 0.136 toe. Average EU citizen uses ~3.0-3.5 toe/year for all energy needs. 1 toe = 41.868 GJ = 11.63 MWh = 39.683 MBTU.
