TuxUnitValue
Scientific and civil-engineering measurement primitive for Texas A&M Transportation Institute telemetry, reports, and pavement studies. Formats transportation quantities (
mph ↔ km/h, mi ↔ km, VMT ↔ VKT, kip ↔ kN, psi ↔ kPa, tons ↔ t, °F ↔ °C, AADT, PCE, SN40R) with tabular numerals, 95% confidence intervals (± CI), highway stationing tags, and a synchronized US Customary ↔ Metric (SI) unit-system toggle. global measurement state · useTuxUnits()
Active System: US Customary (AASHTO / TxDOT)
Toggling the unit system updates every <TuxUnitValue> instance on the page simultaneously.
