Detailed Parameters of Expandable Folding Container House

I. Basic Parameters

• Size specification

Standard unfolded size: 20 feet (about 6 meters long) or 40 feet (about 12 meters long), some models are 5900*6320*2480mm (length, width and height) after unfolding.

Folded size: 2200*5900*2480mm (folded state length reduction), or compressed to a height of 45cm.

Internal space: the internal area of 20 feet folding room can be up to 36-72㎡, including independent bathroom, kitchen and other functional areas.

• Weight and Load

Total mass: 7800kg (including frame and accessories).

Load capacity: 565kg, self-weight about 2500kg.

II. Structure and Material

• Frame

It adopts Q235B section steel, galvanized profiled pipe or light steel H-beam, the specification of column is 150210T 2.5mm, and the top and bottom beams are 80100T 2.5mm.

The connecting parts use high-strength galvanized hinges or bolt hinges to ensure stability.

• Panels and Insulation

Wall/roof panels: 75mm thick EPS panels (fireproof and soundproof), some models use glass wool insulation boards.

Floor: fireproof glass-magnesium board (15mm) with bamboo wood flooring, moisture-proof and wear-resistant.

III. Performance Parameters

• Safety and durability

Compressive strength: 150MPa, flexural strength 468MPa.

Service life: 10-20 years, support recycling.

Protection performance: waterproof, fireproof, shockproof, sound insulation and heat insulation.

• Electrical system

Built-in integrated circuits, buckle and slot seamless waterproof design, in line with safety standards.

IV. Transportation and Installation

• Transportation parameters

Folded height compressed to 45cm, suitable for air, land and sea transportation, reducing logistics costs.

• Installation efficiency

3-people team can complete 300㎡ installation in 1 day, or single box unfolding in 3 minutes (lifting + push away fixing).

Support double-layer stacking, equipped with external stairs, corridor canopies and other expansion components.

Folding container house floor material analysis

I. Mainstream material type

• Fiber cement board

Specification: Thickness range 5-25mm (commonly used 18-20mm), standard size 2440*1220mm or 2865*1170mm, support customized cutting.

Advantage:

Fireproof insulation: class A fireproof standard, excellent insulation performance, suitable for high security areas such as power distribution rooms.

Waterproof and moisture-proof: no deformation under humid environment, suitable for bathroom, kitchen and other areas.

High-strength load-bearing: high density (≥1.8g/cm³), can carry a full load of 8 people and high and low bed frames, pressure-resistant and impact-resistant.

Environmental protection: dry work installation, reduce construction waste, in line with green building materials standards.

• Magnesium glass panel

Specification: thickness 15-20mm, surface covered with bamboo wood flooring or fireproof coating, common size matching with container (e.g. 2865*1170mm).

Advantage:

Fireproof and moisture-proof: fireproof grade A, moisture-proof performance is better than common boards, suitable for humid climate.

Economy: lower unit price (about 20-70 RMB/sheet), cost-effective.

• Other materials

Bamboo wood flooring: composite use with glass-magnesium panels to enhance footing and aesthetics, but need to pay attention to moisture-proof treatment.

Plywood: traditional material (e.g. Keruing wood), resistant to temperature and humidity, but susceptible to pests and requires frequent insecticide treatment, higher health risk

II.The selection of material precautions

Avoid low-quality materials: ordinary wood flooring wear resistance is poor, easy to moisture expansion, not suitable for long-term use.

Density and thickness: high-density fiber cement board (≥1.8g/cm³) is more suitable for scenes with high load-bearing requirements.

Scene adaptation:

Wet environment: preferred fiber cement board or glass-magnesium board.

Temporary scene: economic glass-magnesium board can be chosen.

Long-term residence: High-density fiber cement board is recommended for both durability and safety.
