Fortified 40' × 40' × 15' Reinforced Double-Truss Container Shelter

Product Overview

Create approximately 1,600 square feet of covered space between two parallel shipping containers with this Fortified Reinforced Series shelter. Its 40-foot span and 15-foot canopy height provide substantial room for vehicles, agricultural machinery, construction equipment, materials, and commercial inventory.

A double-truss hot-dip galvanized-steel frame is strengthened with reinforced arch connections and diagonal support pipes along both sides. Welded base plates create a permanent attachment to the supporting containers, while a pipe-and-ratchet system secures your selected PE or PVC covering across the frame.

Shipping containers and front or rear wall panels are not included. Optional end panels are available separately.

Specifications

Available Cover Options

The selected fabric determines the shelter’s cover weight, durability, warranty, and final configuration.

Warranty

• PE cover: 2-year warranty
• PVC cover: 8-year warranty

Warranty coverage is subject to the manufacturer’s mounting, welding, installation, tensioning, maintenance, and weather-use requirements.

Required Container Configuration

Install the shelter between two compatible shipping containers positioned parallel to one another. Both containers must be level, properly supported, structurally suitable, and spaced according to the installation manual.

The listed 15-foot height is measured above the container mounting level. Total ground-to-peak height will depend on the height and placement of the supporting containers.

Verify container foundations, alignment, structural condition, drainage, and mounting compatibility before installation. Base plates must be welded to the containers by a qualified professional.

Cover and Weather Maintenance

Maintain uniform cover tension to prevent loose areas where rain or snow could collect. Inspect and retighten the pipe-and-ratchet system after installation and periodically as temperatures change.

Remove accumulated snow promptly and inspect the shelter following severe weather. Regularly check the cover, trusses, diagonal braces, clamps, welds, base plates, ratchets, and container mounting points.

Keep open flames, heaters, welding operations, and other heat sources away from the installed tarpaulin.
