Cubic Inspirations- Part 2: Basic 40HC  Box

Most ISBU construction projects use 40HC containers or multiple attached 40HC to create the size 
home or office you will want. We will focus on these using the templates to show the simple changes
that can create very different appearances with little effort.

Please Note: Many ISBU designs and architectural renderings we are seeing on the internet are very
cute but are not designed feasably. Therefore, we have asked the people at Tuff Cube to only create
designs that are usable for a real construction project.

We are doing our very best to give our readers a detailed archive they can use for reference; inside
and out.

 The basic 40HC shipping container for home and office construction projects.

 Sidewall is removed momentarily to show the interior of the shipping container.

 For most single unit designs the end of the cargo container is often used as the door and entry.

 Even witht he sliding door attached the container home or office design begins to look more inviting.

 Finished interior walls and floor with top windows to give a unique design and also leave room for two supports to maintain the ISBU strength.

 

  We will now be uploading 10 to 20 new photos daily to our Cubic Inspiration archives.

40HC Box-

This has become the most popular
size globally due to shipping costs
and and also it's 1' taller roof.










The truck shipping costs of a 20GP
compared to a 40HC are almost
identical when you get quotations.

Also the cost of shipping containers
from China is only about 30% more
when used for import/export goods.
Therefore it is a terrific savings for
an importer to only order goods 
using the 40HC size.





















Note that as the template peels away
the layers the graphics are nearly
lifelike. The drawings were created
by a structural engineer who creates
shipping container architecture. He 
has made the walls, floor and frame
dimensions near perfect so we can
get a true and undistorted vision of
realistic shipping container home and
office designs.





















If you choose to keep the costs down
and retain the rustic look of an ISBU
the proper paints and vivid coloring are
crucial to remaining attractive.

The disign and small details are on of the
most important keys to a design that
will be acceptable to almost anyone.

Colors - Design...




















Once the interior of the ISBU shipping
container module has a 2x4 metal frame,
it can accept virtually any standard door
and window hardware and still remain
precise, inexpensive and very attractive.

As demonstrated here, large windows
can be added yet the ISBU can retain
it's structural strength even with 4 or
more levels of ISBU modules on top.






























Even a single ISBU is ideal fora room
addition, student dorm, office or BizPod.





























































Remember, this is a standard 40HC ISBU
shipping container drawn to  perfect
proportion under the direction of an 
architect and his pstructural engineer 
partner who design shipping containers
for the largest manufacturer in the world.

The container is normal size with a ceiling
and insulated walls with 2x4 aluminum 
studs and all the furnishings are normal 
size and styles including a 17" flat screen
digital TV.
