Open-top containers are designed with specific structural features that make loading and unloading cargo more convenient. The walls of these containers are typically made of corrugated steel, while the floor is made of wood. The key distinguishing features are as follows:
Roof with Removable Bows and Tarpaulin: The container’s roof consists of removable bows and a tarpaulin. This allows for easy access to the container from above when the roof is open. It simplifies the packing and unpacking process, especially when using cranes or crabs.
Swivelling Door Header: The door header of the open-top container can be swivelled out, further facilitating the loading and unloading process. This feature enables easy access through the doors by crane or crab when the container is open.
It is important to note that the roof bows not only support the tarpaulin but also contribute to the overall stability of the container. For cargoes that exceed the standard height, flatracks are more suitable due to their design catering to overheight cargoes.
To secure the cargo inside the open-top container, lashing rings are installed in the upper and lower side rails as well as the corner posts. These lashing rings are capable of handling loads of up to 1,000 kg.
The usual dimensions for open-top containers are 20′ and 40′, which are commonly used for various cargo transportation needs.
