GSM is the metric measurement of the weight of a fabric—it is a critical parameter for any textile product. The weight may affect density, thickness and many physical properties of the fabric, such as strength. GSM is accountable for the linear metres and specific use of the fabric. The fabric weight is measured in grams.
In the metric system, the mass per unit area of all types of paper and paperboard is expressed in terms of grams per square metre (g/m 2).This quantity is commonly called grammage in both English and French, [2] though printers in most English-speaking countries still refer to the "weight" of paper.
Ounces are also used to express the "weight", or more accurately the areal density, of a textile fabric in North America, Asia, or the UK, as in "16 oz denim". The number refers to the weight in ounces of a given amount of fabric, either a yard of a given width, or a square yard, where the depth of the fabric is a fabric-specific constant. [18]
Fabric "weight" is often specified as mass per unit area, grams per square meter (gsm) or ounces per square yard. It is also sometimes specified in ounces per yard in a standard width for the particular cloth. One gram per square meter equals 0.0295 ounces per square yard; one ounce per square yard equals 33.9 grams per square meter.
American cooks using British recipes, and vice versa, need to be careful with pints and fluid ounces. A US pint (16 US fluid ounces) is about 16·65 UK fluid ounces or 473 mL, while a UK pint is 20 UK fluid ounces (about 19·21 US fluid ounces or 568 mL): a UK pint is, therefore, about 20% larger than a US pint.
More than 140 million individual federal income tax returns for tax year 2024 to be filed ahead of the April 15 federal deadline for most taxpayers, according to the Internal Revenue Service.
Full Rate (FR), also known as GSM-FR or GSM 06.10 (sometimes simply GSM), was the first digital speech coding standard used in the GSM digital mobile phone system. It uses linear predictive coding (LPC). The bit rate of the codec is 13 kbit/s, or 1.625 bits/audio sample (often padded out to 33 bytes/20 ms or 13.2 kbit/s).
The density can be calculated by dividing the grammage of paper (in grams per square metre or "gsm") by its caliper (usually in micrometres, occasionally in mils). [1] The "ISO 534:2011, Paper and board — Determination of thickness, density and specific volume" indicates that the paper density is expressed in grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm ...
