Non-pressurized dry bulk container shipping technical specifications

1 Scope

China's national technical specification for shipping dry bulk in non-pressurized bulk containers. These are the containers that carry granular and powdered cargo - grain, plastic pellets, minerals, sugar - loaded through hatches in the roof and discharged by tipping or by gravity through the door end. They exist because the alternative for such cargo is either bagging it, which adds handling and packaging cost, or shipping it in a bulk carrier, which only works between ports with the right terminals. A container carries bulk into the intermodal system, so a shipment can go from an inland loading point to an inland customer without ever being bagged or transhipped. Non-pressurized means it is discharged by gravity or tipping rather than by fluidising the cargo with compressed air, which is the arrangement used for cement and similar powders. The specification covers what the container must be capable of and how the cargo is loaded, secured and discharged safely, since a tipping container full of grain is a substantial mass moving.

This standard specifies the pressure-free bulk cargo container bulk cargo handling operations, transport operations and health requirements. This standard applies to GB/T 17274 pressureless dry bulk containers of solid dry bulk (except dangerous goods) of the roads, railways, Water transport and multimodal transport.
