Difference between AH36 steel and DH36 steel

what difference between AH36 and DH36 steel?
As noted by several, the chemical composition of AH and DH is the same, indeed this is also true for EH grade too. It all relates to the thickness and mechanical properties at that thickness of the plate you wish to use. Since the thicker you go, “as-rolled” is different from that of say thermochemically treated which is of course again different from quenched or normalised.
So guaranteeing properties of basic quenched steel in say 10mm thick, is not difficult. But when using say 50mm thick, very difficult to ensure a consistent grain size. Thus different treatments are used to ensure with an ever increasing thickness, so the mechanical properties can be guaranteed. This is supplement by the Charpy V-notch test. So at an ever increasing thickness the Charpy V-notch test has a different temperature and energy requirement, depending upon the AH, Dh etc grade. Thus, it relates to the quality control of the steel with an ever increasing thickness, which is dictated by the temp range and notch toughness range.
LR and DNV requirements are shown below. As you can see, for an AH grade testing is done at 0c less than 50mm thick. But in DH it is done at -20c. The values change as you increase the thickness (as in different Class values and locations noted above) from less than 50mm up to 100mm.
