Using Shipping Containers For Living And Working Space Benefits of Modular ISO Shipping Container Buildings
High Strength Structural Integrity and Low Cost Steel reinforced ISO containers offer enormous structural strength advantages over traditional wood, steel, and concrete building systems...at a fraction of the cost. The recycled shipping containers are built to be stacked up to 9 stories and to withstand hurricane force winds...The steel supports and wall construction material offers an extremely high level of fire resistance...All units ordered and built-out by A&S have 6" centers for floor support and welded steel columns on the four corners...Because of this structural strength the foundation or pad design is simplier and less expensive allowing for more of the building budget to go towards exterior design and interior finishes. The inherent modularity of design capabilities allows A&S to prepare and build-out the containers at our plant with delivery directly to the building project site...further reducing on-site construction costs and time. Steel construction throughout also offers: fire resistance, insect resistance, mold resistance using mold retardent drywall, and virtually unlimited life-span. Flexibility of Use and Design
From multi-level commercial buildings to affordable housing projects, modular container construction offers the developer and architect outstanding flexibility in overall design and finishing features. Commercial and housing designs include but are not limited to cantelivering multiple stories, trussed roofs, very open interior areas, and numerous outside finishes to match any area of the country or neighborhood architectural planning.
