Columns: The thickness of the columns of container houses is not less than 1mm. This column cannot be made by yourself. It requires professional equipment to shape it. There are ready-made ones on the market. Channel steel and columns are the skeleton of the entire container house and play a supporting role. Plays a decisive role in the sturdiness of the house.
Square tube: Square tube is used as the sub-beams at the upper and lower bottom, and welding of door frames and window frames.
The bottom of the container is all connected with square tubes, which further increases the solidity of the main structure of the container.
Corrugated board: Corrugated board is made of thin steel plates and needs to be purchased. The minimum thickness of corrugated boards on the market is 0.6mm. There are two materials: black iron and galvanized sheet.
Floor: This is laid on the secondary beams at the bottom of the container, and people can step on it directly in the future. If you carry out high-end decoration, you can also lay wooden floors, floor tiles, etc. on it.
Rock wool insulation layer: The rock wool insulation layer is added in the middle of the wall, which can reduce heat exchange and improve thermal insulation performance. It must be fireproof. Rock wool color steel plates with iron sheets on both sides can also be used.
Doors and windows: Doors and windows generally use plastic steel doors and windows. If you have money, you can also install broken bridge aluminum doors and windows.
The above materials for container houses are not enough, you also need professional welding equipment and cutting equipment. If you purchase the materials yourself, you will save more than 2,000 yuan per container.
