Customary units of measurement in the United States | Customary units of measurement

English Engineering Units

Some fields of engineering in the United States use a system of measurement of physical quantities known as the English Engineering Units. Despite its name, the system is based on United States customary units of measure; it is not used in England. A similar system, termed British Engineering Units by Halliday and Resnick (1974), was a system that used the slug as the unit of mass, and in which Newton's law retains the form F = ma. Modern British engineering practice has used SI base units since at least the late 1970s. (Wikipedia).
