Admin September 16, 2026

Common sizes of container houses in Jinhua include 6055mm×3000mm×2810mm and 6055mm×2990mm×2896mm, with various other specifications also available. Here is some detailed information:

  1. Standard Size Types
    The reinforced, standard, and economical container houses produced by Beijing Jinhua Hengyuan Integrated Housing Co., Ltd. all have a specification of 6055mm×3000mm×2810mm, with an outer packaging size of 6055mm×3000mm×600mm. Another product has an outer size of 6055mm×2990mm×2896mm and an inner size of 5845mm×2780mm×2540mm. It is connected with M12×40 high-strength bolts, has a main beam thickness of 3.0mm, and uses 18mm cement structural fiberboard for the structural panels.

  2. Industry-Standard Specifications
    Container house sizes often refer to international shipping standards:

  • 20-foot container: Inner dimensions of 5898mm×2352mm×2390mm, commonly used for construction site dormitories and temporary office spaces.
  • 40-foot container: Inner dimensions of 12024mm×2352mm×2390mm, suitable for large-scale projects or modular buildings.
  • 40-foot high-cube container: Inner volume of 13.58m×2.34m×2.68m, with a gross cargo weight of 29 tons and a volume of 86 cubic meters, often used for multi-story mobile homes.
  • Open-top and flat-rack containers: For example, a 20-foot open-top container has an inner volume of 5.89m×2.32m×2.31m, and a 40-foot flat-rack container has an inner volume of 12.05m×2.12m×1.96m, meeting special transportation or loading requirements.
  1. Customized Sizes
    According to customer needs, container houses can be customized with a length, width, and height range of up to 14m×3.5m×3.2m, based on transportation dimensions. For example, common on construction sites are 3m×3m×2.8m (9 square meters) guard posts or small warehouses, and 7m×3m×2.8m (21 square meters) two-story dormitories (with corridors and canopies). Duplex container houses can have specifications of 11.8m×2.25m×2.8m, weigh 2600kg per set, and can be assembled by 4 people in 8 hours.

  2. Basis for Size Selection

  • Functional requirements: The number of occupants and spatial layout (such as whether a balcony or corridor is needed) directly affect size selection.
  • Transportation limitations: Road transportation usually has a height limit of no more than 4.5 meters and a width limit of no more than 3 meters, requiring advance planning.
  • Material efficiency: Excessively small sizes (such as below 3m×3m) may result in waste of materials due to a high proportion of structural components.
