Old Container House Specifications

The specifications of old container houses are mainly divided into two categories: standard sizes and customized non-standard sizes, as detailed below:

I. Standard Container House Sizes Internationally standardized container houses are primarily based on modified shipping containers, with common specifications including:

1. 20-foot Standard Container (20GP): External dimensions are 6058mm in length, 2438mm in width, and 2591mm in height; internal clear dimensions are 5867mm in length, 2330mm in width, and 2350mm in height. These container houses are typically used for single-person offices, dormitories, or shops.
2. 40-foot Standard Container (40GP): External dimensions are 12192mm in length, 2438mm in width, and 2591mm in height; internal clear dimensions are 11998mm in length, 2330mm in width, and 2350mm in height. With larger internal space, they can be divided into multifunctional areas or multi-person dormitories.
3. 40-foot High Cube Container (40HQ): The external height is increased to 2896mm, with an internal clear height of 2655mm, suitable for scenarios requiring higher ceilings, such as exhibition halls or residences.

II. Customized Non-Standard Container House Sizes According to actual needs, the length, width, and height of container houses can be flexibly adjusted, with common non-standard sizes including:

1. Length: Can be customized to 3m, 4m, 6m, 8m, 12m, etc., or even achieve longer spans through the connection of multiple containers.
2. Width: Options include 2.5m, 2.55m, 3m, 4m, etc., to accommodate different functional requirements.
3. Height: Common heights are 2.6m, 2.7m, 2.8m, 2.9m, with some projects increasing height by stacking containers.

III. Other Key Parameters

1. Load-Bearing Capacity: The load-bearing capacity of a 20-foot standard container is approximately 25 tons, with higher capacities for 40-foot standard containers; specific values should refer to the supplier's technical specifications.
2. Materials and Structure: The frame is mostly made of galvanized channel steel or square tubes, with walls commonly using color-steel glass wool sandwich panels, typically 50mm to 75mm thick, providing thermal insulation and fire resistance.
3. Functional Expansion: Container houses can be combined through modular design into functional units such as shower rooms, toilets, and conference rooms, meeting complex scenario requirements.

IV. Application Scenarios and Flexibility Standard container houses, with their uniform sizes and convenient transportation, are widely used in construction site offices, temporary shops, educational facilities, etc.; customized non-standard sizes are more suitable for projects with special spatial requirements, such as agricultural facilities, medical stations, or resort accommodations.
