3. Material & Structural Specifications
Steel Construction: Corrugated Corten A-grade weathering steel exterior shell, structurally reinforced around all cutouts for doors, roller shutters, and ventilation.
Frame & Corner Castings: ISO 1161 heavy-duty corner castings for standard twist-lock handling, crane lifting, and multi-modal transport.
Flooring: Heavy-duty 4mm steel checker plate (or marine-grade plywood overlaid with industrial anti-slip vinyl), engineered to handle heavy point loads, dropped tools, and high foot traffic.
Insulation & Lining: 50mm high-density rockwool or polyurethane spray-foam insulation behind internal white-melamine or galvanized steel wall/ceiling panels for extreme thermal regulation.
4. Security & Access Features
Primary Access: Heavy-duty steel personnel access (PA) door fitted with heavy-duty mortise deadlocks and a weather-sealed frame.
Equipment Access: Aluminum or galvanized heavy-duty side-mounted roller shutter door with dual slide-bolt locks for loading bulky parts or creating cross-ventilation.
Secure Storage: Lockable internal tool cages/partitions constructed from heavy-gauge expanded metal or steel mesh to protect high-value diagnostic equipment.
External Security: Factory-welded steel lockboxes on original container cargo doors (if retained at the rear end for bulk storage).
5. Electrical & Safety Infrastructure
Power Distribution: Industrial DB switchboard equipped with RCD protection, main isolator, and external 3-phase or heavy single-phase site-plug inlet (IP66 rated).
Lighting: High-output, dust-proof LED strip or batten task lighting running the length of the workspace.
Power Outlets: Strategically placed IP66-rated weather-resistant GPOs along workbench areas for heavy power tools, welders, and battery chargers.
Climate Control: Industrial-grade split-system air conditioner (reverse cycle) sized for extreme external ambient temperatures.
Safety Compliance: Integrated emergency eyewash station, heavy-duty chemical spill kit, fire extinguisher mounting points, and optional bunded flooring for fluid management.
6. Logistics & Handling
Transport: Fully CSC-plated base container, transportable via standard container side-loaders, flatbed trucks, or tilt-trays.
Site Deployment: Designed for rapid plug-and-play hookup to on-site generator or grid power, with integrated lifting lugs and forklift pockets (where specified).
