Millimeters to the fourth to centimeters to the fourth

Type a value in mm⁴ to get it in cm⁴ instantly.

100cm⁴

That's 2,037× as stiff as a 10 mm steel rod, while a timber stud is 2.2× stiffer. A solid square beam about 58.86 mm a side would be just as stiff.

What it means

How stiff is that section?

This is the area moment, about a stated axis. It is not the mass moment of inertia, which has units of kg·m² and belongs to spinning things.

The math

How to convert mm⁴ to cm⁴

To convert millimeters to the fourth to centimeters to the fourth, multiply by 0.0001.

Example: 1,000,000 mm⁴ × 0.0001 = 100 cm⁴.

In the other direction, 1 cm⁴ = 10,000 mm⁴.
