The ISO standard maximum gross weights for inland containers are specified as follows: The following two tables give the lengths and gross weights for 20', 30' and 40' ISO containers and 10' to 40' inland containers.Ģ0' container with maximum total weight of 30,480 kilograms Internal and door dimensions, in both feet and inches and millimetersĭimensions, stated solely in inches and meters More detailed information is also to be found in this section.Įxternal, internal and door dimensions, metric system This warning also counts as an operational marking. Warning affixed to a 2.5 m wide container Pallet-compatible containers are 2.50 m wide, for example, and usually carry an appropriate warning: When packing a container, it is important to cast an eye over the plates affixed to it. If real data relating to containers to be ordered and subsequently packed are required for the purpose of forward planning, it is best to refer to the brochures published by shipping companies or other container owners. Many of the following statements fall equally within the scope of the operational markings covered in Section 3.5, where additional information may be found. The current internal container dimensions are dependent on the structural material used and the container type selected. The internal dimensions are stated as minimum values. The external dimensions of the containers are specified in ISO 668, with the maximum allowable dimensional tolerances being ± 10 mm. Maximum mass for a 40' container according to the old standard or optionally for a more recent 20' The correct unit would be the newton, with the decanewton or kilonewton also being possible. The term used in this example is weight, as is more usual, but the unit used is that of mass. Maximum mass for a 20' container according to DIN ISO 688 The significant feature of this container is that the term used is the more correct "mass", the unit of mass being correctly stated as the kilogram. Maximum mass for a 20' container according to the old standard The same applies to a half-length container 24'4½"/7.43 m long, because of the 2.60 m width. However, such a container is unacceptable to most of the countries in Africa, Asia, Australasia and Europe. The appropriate specialist committees have devoted time to discussing the introduction of 49'/14.9 m long containers with a width of 8' 6"/2.60 m. However, attempts to introduce such a container with widths of over 2.55 m and heights of over 2.90 m may well meet with resistance. The above-mentioned container is virtually identical to the CEN standard C-type swap-body, which is 7.45 m long.
With a width of 2.50 m and a height of 2.60 m, such containers fulfill the technical requirements and traffic laws of many countries. Containers of the following heights are in use:Ĭontainers 7.43 m long are in principle half-size 49' containers.
