Introduction

Series 1 containers are international standard containers that are circulated around the world: The standardization 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 "Technical Requirements and Tests for Series 1 Containers":

"Test Methods" series of standards, my country has carried out corresponding international standard transformation work 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, production and production of Series 1 containers:

Production, inspection and transportation, consisting of five parts:

---Part 1: General containers: 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 liquids, gases and pressurized dry powders Technical requirements and test methods for cargo tank containers:

---Part 4: Unpressurized dry bulk containers: The purpose is to specify the technical requirements and tests for Series 1 unpressurized dry bulk containers method:

---Part 5: Platform and rack containers: The purpose is to specify the technical requirements and testing of Series 1 platform and rack-mounted containers:

test method:

1 Series, container technical requirements and test methods

Part 4: Unpressurized dry bulk containers
