The AH 36 is an ABS Standard, high strength low alloy steel for ship hulls that contains small amounts of copper, chromium and nickel (less than 0.35%, 0.20% and 0.35%, respectively) in addition to micro alloy elements - niobium and vanadium. This steel is produced to a fine grain melting practice with a specified minimum yield strength of 50 Ksi.
RE: A36 Modified
Steve in the API 650 reference doesn't it also have Carbon limitations? I was thinking less than .20. Thanks again for the replies I had never heard of the yield point being 50 Ksi until the other day which has brought up this whole discussion in our shop. It seems all of us could be correct.

qgman74, I believe the gist of what everyone is telling you is that MOD can mean just about anything to anyone and may mean different things to different people in different contexts. Lacking a real formalized standard, you are going to need to be a lot more specific as to what the mod means.

You need to find the web site below, and sign up to access downloads (it is free). Look under steel vessel rules 2005 - Part 2. Find Chapter 1, Materials for Hull Construction,
Higher Strength Steel
