During crash tests and safety checks they test to see how much pressure the femur can hold before it fractures. I think they said that it can hold up to 500lbs of pressure before it fractures. Therefore, if your car says that it has a femur load of 244lbs for example, then that is how much pressure will likely to be applied to your femur during a certain pertaining crash.
