What is the maximum allowable measurement for top side rail outward deformation when using a spacer?

The maximum allowable measurement for top side rail outward deformation when using a spacer is set at 10mm. This standard is important for ensuring the structural integrity of the dry van and maintaining proper alignment with other components. The deformation limit is designed to accommodate slight variations that may occur during manufacturing or operational use while preventing excessive bending or warping, which could compromise the functionality and safety of the container.

Keeping the deformation within this range helps in providing a consistent sealing surface and preventing moisture intrusion, which can lead to cargo damage. If deformation exceeds this limit, it may indicate underlying issues that could affect the overall performance of the logistics unit, hence the strict adherence to this standard. This specification ultimately supports the durability and reliability of the containers used in transporting goods.
