Am not sure i use the conversion correctly. Can someone clarify the calculated pressure from using a torque wrench set at certain setting. The screw is 1/4" dia screw with given torque setting at 3 foot-pound force on a 3 in" square plate. What is the calculated pressure of the plate subjected to the torque listed?

There is a general equation that estimates the axial loading applied by the fastener at a known torque.
