Until just a few years ago, shipping container buildings seemed mind blowing ideas by people who are extremely innovative.

They are practical because they are cheap, very environmental, very fast to set up, and they are portable in most cases.

The growing city, the open mind of the people and developers of the cities, and the abondance of shipping containers have made the UAE into a home of many shipping container buildings, serving many different purposes.

What Can You Expect of Shipping Container Buildings
Shipping container buildings have many strengths, but maybe none more appealing as their costs. Building an entire structure using shipping containers is so much cheaper than choosing ordinary style material because of so many reasons.
First is that each space built by normal material, equal in size with a shipping container, will always be more expensive to build than buying a shipping container, and if you are planning to have a space bigger than a single shipping container, the cost of adding shipping containers together to create your preferred size
of space will be even more cheap, meaning that the bigger the structure, the more money you save.Shipping container buildings are also set up in a fraction of the time it takes to build a normal building, which means a lot of money will be saved on labor as well, plus you will start utilizing the building a lot sooner which means you get more out of the deal. Regarding matters other than economy, shipping container buildings are very eco-friendly. Not only you recycle material by reusing shipping containers, you are doing that without the massive energy needed to melt that volume of steel, and by doing so you prevent all the wasted material and energy which are normal during the process of building a traditional structure.
In terms of quality of structure, you can’t go wrong with shipping container buildings. Shipping containers are built to be filled with anything that fits inside them, even extremely heavy cargos, and then they are designed to be stacked on top of each other while all of them are filled out.
So, considering that the standard is to stack 9 shipping containers on top of each other on a ship, a shipping container is designed to take the weight of 8 other shipping containers which are fully loaded with very heavy material, and it carries that weight for long periods of time while being subject to the harshest weather conditions and being constantly rocked by the ship movement. Building a structure with a few floors isn’t anything that would be strange to expect of shipping containers.
