Mainly used in the U.S., but something to do with forces and torque. Also, for calculating energy in bullets, too, apparently!

It is similar to 12 in. = 1 foot, so 12 inch pounds = 1 foot pound.

No problem and it sure has a funny name...foot pound! Imagine a liter pound...or even a kilometer pound. !
