foreword

This document is in accordance with the provisions of GB/T 1:1-2020 "Guidelines for Standardization Work Part 1: Structure and Drafting Rules for Standardization Documents"

drafting:

This document is the first part of GB/T 5338 "Series 1 Container Technical Requirements and Test Methods": GB/T 5338 has been published

the following sections:

--- Part 1: General container;

--- Part 2: Insulated containers;

--- Part 4: Unpressurized dry bulk containers;

--- Part 5: Platform and bench-mounted containers:

This document replaces GB/T 5338-2002 "Series 1 Container Technical Requirements and Test Methods Part 1: General Containers", and

Compared with GB/T 5338-2002, except for structural adjustment and editorial changes, the main technical changes are as follows:

a) The container type code has been changed (see Table 1, Table 1 of GB/T 5338-2002 edition);

b) Changed the container type classification, added 1EEE and 1EE container types and their corresponding requirements (see 4:3, 5:2:1, 5:3, 5:7, 5:8,

6:2, 4:3, 5:2, 5:3, 5:7, 5:8, 6:2 of GB/T 5338-2002 edition);

c) Changed the width of the load transfer area from 250mm to 375mm [see 5:3:2a), GB/T 5338-2002 edition

5:3:2:1];

d) Added the requirements and diagrams for the concave space of the middle bottom corner fittings of 45ft containers (see Figure 1);

e) Delete the description of the optional structural gooseneck (see 5:8:2 and Appendix D of GB/T 5338-2002 edition);

f) An optional structural cargo bar slot has been added (see 5:8:3 and Appendix D);

g) The stacking test force values of box types 1A, 1AA, 1AAA, 1AX, 1B, 1BB, 1BBB, 1BX, 1C, 1CC and 1CX have been changed

(See Table 3, Table 3 of GB/T 5338-2002 edition);

h) Changed the strength test force value of the bottom plate from 5460kg to 7260kg (see 6:9:2, GB/T 5338-2002 edition

6:9:2);

i) Added Test 12 Barrier Groove Test (see 6:13);

j) Deleted the description of the specific requirements of the load transfer area (see Appendix B of GB/T 5338-2002 edition):

This document is equivalent to ISO 1496-1:2013 "Series 1 Container Technical Requirements and Test Methods Part 1: General Collection

Boxing":

The following minimal editorial changes have been made to this document:

--- Incorporates the content of ISO 1496-1:2013/Amd1:2016:

--- Corrected the following errors:

* Changed the width of the load transfer zone from 250mm to 375mm according to Figure B:1 of ISO 668:2020 [see 5:3:2a)];

* Deleted the requirement of "working according to 5:8:2" [see 5:3:2c)];

* A schematic diagram of the safety handle seat of the door lock lever of the container container is added (see Figure 2);

* Deleted the last sentence of "the container should be kept for 5 minutes and then put back on the ground" in the test 12 bar groove test (see

6:13:2 of ISO 1496-1:2013);

* Changed the "For the fixed cargo device installed along the length direction on the bottom plane of the box, the force should be applied laterally", ISO 1496-1:2013

Wrongly written "longitudinal force" (see C:3:1):

Introduction

Series 1 containers, as international standard containers, are circulated around the world, and the normativeness and standardization of their design, production, and inspection are crucial:

important: In order to standardize and promote the development of series 1 container transportation, ISO has formulated ISO 1496 "Series 1 container technical requirements and test

In order to provide technical support for the development of my country's container industry:

GB/T 5338 "Technical Requirements and Test Methods for Series 1 Containers" is intended to guide and standardize the design and production of Series 1 containers:

Production, inspection and transportation, consists of five parts:

--- Part 1: General container: The purpose is to specify the technical requirements and test methods for series 1 general cargo containers:

--- Part 2: Insulated containers: The purpose is to specify the technical requirements and test methods for series 1 insulated containers:

--- Part 3: Liquid, gas and pressurized dry bulk tank containers: The purpose is to specify series 1 liquid, gas and pressurized dry powder

Technical requirements and test methods for tank containers:

--- Part 4: Unpressurized dry bulk containers: The purpose is to specify the technical requirements and tests for series 1 non-pressurized dry bulk containers

method:

--- Part 5: Platform and bench-mounted containers: The purpose is to specify the technical requirements and test requirements for series 1 platform and platform containers:

test method:

Series 1 container technical requirements and test methods
