Unlike to a vessel transporting immeasurable items all around countries, the discharged shipping container appeals certain aspects of the affordable and the reusing construction factor as special modules, when freight containers grounded and sit around empty in a place. Being a part from that cargo containers are the temporary items being transported over decades, cargo containers have been recently more worthy of notice in building solution, rather than being used in architecture for temporary construction purposes only. Indeed, the public pay more attention on container prerequisites for use as a usable volume of space and a modulated building element defining a spatial boundary. Beyond the limited given layout of container modules, the modular units allow us speculate in a variety of operating in usable volumes and the material adaption of container units for use.
