Main characteristics of container houses

1.1 High safety

Containers are characterized by strong, durable and high security. Usually the top, bottom and front and rear sides of 40-foot containers have a load-bearing capacity of 1.7t/m2, the left and right sides have a compressive capacity of 0.5t/m2, and the load-bearing capacity of the four corner pillars reaches 86.4t, with a transverse rigidity of 15.2t and a longitudinal rigidity of 7.6t, which is very strong in compression resistance and wind resistance. Usually the basic structure of the container unit is not easy to destroy, which can guarantee the safety of the residents. The water tightness of the container is good, so the container house has strong rainproof ability. In addition, the use of fire prevention and thermal insulation materials made of internal partitions can further improve the safety of container housing.

1.2 Green environmental protection

First of all, the container house belongs to the prefabricated building, all modular units are manufactured in the factory, the combination and installation is very convenient, can shorten the on-site construction time, reduce the impact on the surrounding environment; Secondly, the construction materials of the container house are mainly steel and wooden boards, the building materials after the scrapping of the building materials recycling rate is high, the construction of waste materials is less, and the impact on the environment is small; Finally, the use of waste second-hand containers to build houses to realize the reuse of waste resources, adapt to the recycling of waste resources. Finally, the use of used containers to build houses realizes the reuse of waste resources, adapts to the requirements of the development of circular economy, and belongs to the environmental protection industry of green economy.

1.3 Convenient movement

Container is a widely used, globally applicable transportation unit, and the related transportation and loading and unloading facilities are relatively complete. Therefore, container housing can be well adapted to the requirements of the development of modern transportation industry, with strong flexibility, easy to move and other characteristics, especially suitable for temporary residence. Container housing relocation without large-scale dismantling, whether it is transportation, installation or dismantling, are very convenient.

1.4 Strong adaptability

Container itself is a complete closed structure, so the container housing on the surrounding supporting facilities requirements are not high, generally speaking, flat ground conditions can meet the construction requirements. Container housing can be configured with independent power and water system, constituting a complete living space, the dependence on the surrounding environment is not large, has a strong adaptability, can be used in the simple harsh environment.
