目前,在建筑应用中安全使用运输集装箱的指导方针还不存在。集装箱的结构完整性、改造特性、基础限制、建筑规范规定和加固限制大多是未知的。因此,本研究开始了对集装箱结构限制的调查,从而有助于集装箱建筑施工和设计要求的发展。主要研究目标是为国际标准化组织(ISO)用于非航运用途的航运集装箱制定结构准则。本文对ISO集装箱的结构强度进行了深入的研究,并利用有限元计算机模型进行了进一步的研究。有限元分析显示了修改和未修改的集装箱模型在给定荷载情景下的响应。计算结果表明,在荷载作用下,集装箱箱壁和顶板具有良好的抗荷载能力。结构工程方面的考虑,基础和连接的船舶集装箱在建筑应用提出。
Currently, guidelines for safely using shipping containers for building applications do not exist. The shipping container’s structural integrity, modification properties, foundation limits, building code regulations, and reinforcing limits are mostly unknown. As a result, this research begins the investigation of shipping containers’ structural limitations thus aiding the development of container building construction and design requirements. The main research objective is to develop structural guidelines for International Organization for Standardization (ISO) shipping containers used for non-shipping applications. This paper provides insight into the ISO shipping container’s structural strength which is further investigated using finite element computer modeling. The finite element analysis shows how both modified and unmodified container models respond under given loading scenarios. The loading scenarios incorporate the effect of gravity and lateral loading, and the computer simulations demonstrate the effectiveness of the container walls and roof to resist the loads. Structural engineering considerations, foundations, and connections for shipping containers used in building applications are presented.
