Movable Container House

Movable container houses are usually modified based on standard containers, coming in various types. Common sizes are 20 feet and 40 feet. They are characterized by their sturdy structure and convenient transportation, making them suitable for a wide range of scenarios.

Types and Specifications

• Container-type office houses: These are independent office units formed by modifying standard containers. Common sizes are 20 feet and 40 feet, and they can be used as a single unit or combined with multiple units. They are frequently used in scenarios such as project departments and construction site command centers.
• Foldable office houses: These feature a foldable design. During transportation, their volume is compressed, and they can be quickly unfolded upon arrival. The unfolding time for a single unit can be controlled within 30 minutes, making them suitable for office needs that require frequent relocation, such as exploration teams and temporary command posts.
• Assembled office houses: These are constructed by combining light steel keels with color-coated steel plates and are assembled on-site in a modular fashion. They can be flexibly expanded according to the number of people and functional divisions and are commonly seen in temporary offices in industrial parks and event planning sites.
• Expandable office houses: These have additional side or end expansion cabins added to the container base. After expansion, the usable area can increase by 30%-50%. They are suitable for long-term on-site offices with high requirements for spatial comfort.

Performance Characteristics

• Structural stability: Some high-quality products adopt a full steel structure frame, with a wind resistance rating of up to Level 12 and an earthquake resistance intensity of 8 degrees. The frame has a low deformation rate and complies with relevant building structure load specifications. For example, the full steel structure frame container houses from Suzhou Zhongnan Steel Structure Co., Ltd. have passed third-party testing, achieving a wind resistance rating of Level 12 and an earthquake resistance intensity of 8 degrees, with a frame deformation rate of only 0.2%.
• Installation efficiency: The installation efficiency of products from different enterprises varies. Some enterprises' quick-assembly container products can be installed in just 2 hours for a single unit, and a camp of 100 units can be put into use within 7 days from arrival on-site.
• Transportation, storage, and reusability: Foldable containers significantly reduce their volume after folding, lowering transportation costs. They can be stacked during storage, improving space utilization. For example, the foldable container houses from Suzhou Zhongnan Steel Structure Co., Ltd. have a volume after folding that is only 1/5 of their expanded state. Transportation costs are reduced by 40% compared to non-foldable products, and they can be stacked up to 8 layers during storage, increasing storage space utilization by 60%.
