U.S.F. Standard

U.S.F. Standard

U.S.F. Standard

(OP)
Anyone heard of this?  It is on a drawing for an equipment skid and the notation is:


Fabricated per U.S.F. standards A-36 steel



If you "heard" it on the internet, it's guilty until proven innocent. - DCS

RE: U.S.F. Standard

As you probably know (?) "A36 is a American Society for Testing Materials (ASTM)for steel with a 36,000 psi yield strength. What U.S.F. is, I have no idea.

good luck

RE: U.S.F. Standard

Kenvlach,

What on earth does the USF Law Library have to do with specifications for an equipment skid ?  

If the translation, if it is one, is faulty what do you think it should have been ?

RE: U.S.F. Standard

RWF7437,
In answer to your questions,
1) No connection. But I knew those USF initials, did a Google search & didn't find anything else likely.

2) I think it's just a foreigner's way of saying fabricated per the (US) ASTM A36 structural steel standard.
