40′ OPEN TOP

Specification

[ninja_tables id=”417″]

Description

The walls of open-top containers are generally made of corrugated steel. The floor is made of wood.
It has the following typical distinguishing structural features. The roof consists of removable bows and a removable tarpaulin. The door header may be swivelled out.
These two structural features greatly simplify the process of packing and unpacking the container. In particular, it is very easy to pack and unpack the container from above or through the doors by crane or crab when the roof is open and the door header is swivelled out.
It should be noted, however, that the purpose of the roof bows of an open-top container is not solely to support the tarpaulin but also to contribute to container stability. Flatracks are therefore more suitable for overheight cargoes.
Lashing rings, to which the cargo may be secured, are installed in the upper and lower side rails and the corner posts. The lashing rings may take loads of up to 1,000 kg.
Usual open-top container dimensions are 20′ and 40′.

Usage

Open-top containers are used for all types of general cargo (dry cargo). Their principal uses are as follows:
• packing and unpacking from above or through the doors by crane or crab
• tall cargo

45′ HIGH-CUBE

Specification

[ninja_tables id=”413″]

Description

High-cube containers are similar in structure to standard containers, but taller. In contrast to standard containers, which have a maximum height of 2591 mm (8’6″), high-cube containers are 2896 mm, or 9’6″, tall. High-cube containers are for the most part 40′ long, but are sometimes made as 45′ containers.
A number of lashing rings, capable of bearing loads of at most 1000 kg, are mounted on the front top end rail and bottom cross member and the corner posts.
Many 40′ containers have a recess in the floor at the front end which serves to center the containers on so-called gooseneck chassis. These recesses allow the containers to lie lower and therefore to be of taller construction.

Usage

High-cube containers are used for all types general cargo (dry cargo). However, they are particularly suitable for transporting light, voluminous cargoes and overheight cargoes up to a maximum of 2.70 m tall.

40′ STANDARD

Specification

[ninja_tables id=”404″]

Description

Standard containers are also known as general purpose containers.
They are closed containers, i.e. they are closed on all sides. A distinction may be drawn between the following types of standard container:
• Standard containers with doors at one or both end(s)
• Standard containers with doors at one or both end(s) and doors over the entire length of one or both sides
• Standard containers with doors at one or both end(s) and doors on one or both sides
In addition, the various types of standard container also differ in dimensions and weight, resulting in a wide range of standard containers.
Standard containers are mainly used as 20′ and 40′ containers. Containers with smaller dimensions are very seldom used. Indeed, the trend is towards even longer dimensions, e.g. 45′.
