| Symbol | English | Metric |
| \( Z \) = plastic section modulus | \( in^3 \) | \( mm^3 \) |
| \( d \) = diameter | \( in \) | \( mm \) |
Plastic section modulus of a circular cross-section is a measure used in structural engineering to describe the capacity of the section to resist plastic bending.
