Weihai Container House Dimensions

Common dimensions of container houses in Weihai include 3m×3m, 6m×3m, 7m×3m, as well as custom dimensions based on needs. Additionally, there are specific dimensions for second-hand containers, such as 6m×2.4m and 12m×2.4m. Details are as follows:

Standard Dimension Types

1. 3m×3m×2.8m: With an area of 9 square meters, this is a small container house. Due to its small size, material utilization is limited, and it is usually customized according to specific customer needs. It is mostly used as a guard post on construction sites or a small storage room for items, with a living space that can accommodate about 2 people.
2. 6m×3m×2.8m: Covering an area of 18 square meters, this is the most common standard size on the market. Its internal net height is approximately 2.6 meters, allowing for the placement of a double bed, a simple desk, and a standing wardrobe. The space is utilized reasonably and does not feel cramped. This size is widely used in construction sites and road construction projects, serving as workers' dormitories that can accommodate about 10 people, or being transformed into functional rooms such as toilets and kitchens.
3. 7m×3m×2.8m: With an area of 21 square meters, this is mostly used for two-story container mobile homes. Compared to the 6-meter size, it features added corridors and canopy designs. The indoor space is the same as that of the 6-meter type, but the vertical expansion enhances usability, making it suitable for scenarios requiring tiered living or functional zoning.

Custom and Special Dimension Types

1. Custom Dimensions: Designed flexibly according to customer needs, the size range covers from 3m×3m to 14m×3.5m×3.2m (length, width, height). For example, specifications like 3m×8m and 3m×9m can meet specific functional or spatial requirements, but specific parameters need to be determined through consultation with the manufacturer.
2. Second-hand Container Dimensions: Among the second-hand containers sold in the Weihai area, small containers have dimensions of 6m×2.4m×2.59m, 40-foot standard containers are 12m×2.4m×2.59m, and 40-foot high-cube containers are 12m×2.4m×2.89m. Due to their sturdy structure and reusability, these containers are often transformed into warehouses or temporary housing.

International Standard Dimension References
The standardized dimensions of shipping containers also provide references for the design of container houses. For example, the internal dimensions of a 20-foot container are 5.898m×2.352m×2.39m, and those of a 40-foot container are 12.024m×2.352m×2.39m. Although these dimensions are mostly used for logistics and transportation, some container houses are also designed based on their structures.
