What does one foot water (60°F) represent?

It represents the pressure from a 1-foot column of pure water at 60°F under standard gravity.

Why use terapascal units?

Terapascal is used for extremely large pressures, such as those in high-pressure physics and planetary interiors.

Are conversions between foot water and terapascal commonly practical?

No, because of their vastly different magnitudes, terapascal values for typical foot water pressures are extremely small.
