Container House Dimensions in Baiyun District

Admin 17 de septiembre de 2026

There is no unified standard specific to Baiyun District for container house dimensions, but one can refer to the common types and typical specifications of container houses, as detailed below:

I. Standard Residential Container Houses Common dimensions are 3 meters (width) × 6 meters (length) × 2.8 meters (height), with an internal area of approximately 18 square meters. Due to their reasonable spatial layout and moderate cost, these specifications are widely used in scenarios such as temporary housing on construction sites and commercial exhibition halls. Additionally, some manufacturers offer variants with a width of 2.4 meters and a length of 6 meters, covering an area of about 14.4 square meters, and the height may also be adjusted to 2.6 meters to meet different needs.

II. Packing-Box Prefabricated Temporary Buildings The standard dimensions are approximately 3 meters × 6 meters × 2.9 meters, also covering an area of about 18 square meters. Their structure adopts a modular design, facilitating quick assembly and disassembly, and they are commonly used in scenarios requiring efficient deployment, such as emergency rescue and post-disaster reconstruction. Slightly taller than standard residential container houses, they provide more ample vertical space.

III. International Shipping Container Standards (ISO 668)

  1. 20-foot Standard Container (20GP): External dimensions are 6.058 meters (length) × 2.438 meters (width) × 2.591 meters (height), with internal dimensions of 5.898 meters × 2.352 meters × 2.393 meters. Due to their compact size, these containers are often used for transporting small goods or as single-room functional units.
  2. 40-foot Standard Container (40GP): External dimensions are 12.192 meters × 2.438 meters × 2.591 meters, with internal dimensions of 12.032 meters × 2.352 meters × 2.393 meters. With double the length, they can accommodate more goods or be divided into multiple functional areas, suitable for large-scale warehousing or office spaces.
  3. 40-foot High Cube Container (40HC/HQ): External dimensions are 12.192 meters × 2.438 meters × 2.896 meters, with internal dimensions of 12.032 meters × 2.352 meters × 2.698 meters. With an increased height of 0.3 meters, they can meet scenarios requiring higher vertical space, such as equipment storage or double-story structural modifications.

IV. Customized Container Panel Houses They support adjustments in length, width, and height according to actual site requirements, and can even form larger spaces through splicing and combination. For example, the 40-foot container house provided by Guangzhou Jinge Company, when three units are spliced together, has dimensions of 11.8 meters × 6.75 meters × 2.8 meters, with a usable area of up to 80 square meters. Such customized solutions offer high flexibility and can be applied in complex scenarios such as commercial complexes and temporary hospitals.
