 1. Description of Container House:

The use of container house as a building material has grown in popularity of the past several years due to their inherent strength, wide availability, and relatively low expense. We have also started to see people build homes with containers because they are seen as more eco-friendly than traditional building materials such as brick and cement. contanier house

Floor is used cold rolled steel profile to post the house; floor, wall and roof are all using eps or rockwool sandwich panel/insulated material to ensure the house heat insulated program; wall panel usd steel sheet (zinc sheet) as pretect cover contanier house

4. Advantage of a container house:

a Strength and durability

contanier house are in many ways an ideal building material. They are designed to carry heavy loads and to be stacked in high columns. They are also designed to resist harsh environments, such as on ocean-going vessels or sprayed with road salt while transported on roads. Due to their high strength, containers may be adapted for secure storage.

b. Modular

All shipping container houses are the same width and most have two standard height and length measurements and as such they provide modular elements that can be combined into larger structures. This simplifies design, planning and transport. As they are already designed to interlock for ease of mobility during transportation, structural construction is completed by simply emplacing them. Due to the containers' modular design additional construction is as easy as stacking more containers. They can be stacked up to 12 high when empty.

c. Labor

The welding and cutting of steel is considered to be specialized labor and can increase construction expenses, yet overall it is still lower than conventional construction. Unlike wood frame construction, attachments must be welded or drilled to the outer skin, which is more time consuming and requires different job site equipment.

d. Transport

Pre-fabricated modules can also be easily transported by ship, truck or rail, because they already conform to standard shipping sizes.

e. Availability

Used shipping containers are available across the globe.

f. Expense

Many used containers are available at an amount that is low compared to a finished structure built by other labor-intensive means such as bricks and mortar — which also require larger more expensive foundations. Construction involves very little labor and used shipping containers requiring only simple modification can be purchased from major transport companies for as little as US $1,200 each. Even when purchased brand new they are seldom more than US $6000.

g. Foundations

Containers are designed to be supported by their four corners making a very simple foundation possible. As well the top four corners are very strong as they are intended to support a stack of other containers.

h. Eco-Friendly

A 40ft shipping container weights over 3,500KG so each time one is upcycled we are saving thousands of kilograms of steel. In addition when building with containers, we are also reducing the amount of traditional building materials needed (i.e. bricks and cement).
