40ft x 40ft Double Truss Container Shelter

This 40ft wide, 144M2 shelter is designed for critical infrastructure protection, utilising a weld-on base plate for robust and secure installation. Ideal for semi-permanent or long-term projects, it offers flexible configurations whereby it can be mounted on shipping containers for enhanced mobility and on-site customization, or mounted to existing walls or via post-mount and eaves rail systems, providing adaptability for various project requirements.

Shelter Features

• Welded base plates for a solid and robust foundation.
• Double truss arches (with inline bolt-through truss plate sections) for extra strength and additional load-bearing support.
• Engineered for enduring strength and resilience.
• 14.7ft apex, with an 23.2ft overall entry clearance (assuming a GP container)
• Heavy-duty PVC 610GSM roof fabric cover.

Welded securely onto 40ft shipping containers and a massive 40ft front and rear entry access, this dome shelter has been engineered for large projects where oversized vehicle and machinery access is required, and/or expansive workshop and storage areas are required.

Double Trussed Dome Structure

• Enhanced Structural Integrity: The double trussed frame design in this 40x40ft shelter equates to superior strength and stability. This dome shelter is capable of withstanding harsh weather conditions including high winds, extreme temperatures, and even heavy snow, ensuring all-year protection for stock and merchandise, machinery, equipment and personnel.
• High Load Bearing Capacity: Specifically engineered to handle significant loads, the double trussed design makes this shelter ideal for areas prone to persistent adverse weather conditions, or for a structure that demands additional engineering, protecting expensive equipment and materials stored beneath.
• Durability and Corrosion Resistance: These CHS and RHS steel tube shipping container-mounted dome shelters are constructed from high-grade, hot-dip galvanised steel offering exceptional durability and corrosion resistance.
• Galvanising – Increased Longevity and Less Maintenance: Galvanised steel structures such as this are designed to last over 25-50 years in average environments without the need for significant maintenance. This is achieved because the Zinc has a very unique property that makes it perfect for protecting steel frames from the effects of corrosion. When zinc and steel are in contact with each other the zinc will be susceptible weathering long before the steel does. This happens because of a sacrificial process, whereby when zinc and steel are exposed to water or moisture Zinc are absorbed by the steel, therefore increasing the corrosion protection properties of the steel. The sacrificial nature of the zinc coating means that any minor damage to the surface does not compromise the underlying steel; instead, the zinc corrodes preferentially, providing ongoing protection and eliminating the need for touch-ups or additional coatings
• Customisable and Modular Design: We can advise on and supply a range of shelter configurations to suit any site requirements, including adjustable sizes, the addition of front and end walls, and ventilation systems, ensuring a tailored solution for every need.
• Cost-Effective Long-Term Solution: While providing immediate protection and operational continuity, the durable and low-maintenance nature of this trussed frame dome shelters represents a cost-effective investment over time, with benefits extending far beyond the initial setup.

Why you need it

• Protect Valuable Assets: Shield machinery, equipment, and materials from rain, sun, wind, and extreme weather conditions, extending the lifespan and reducing maintenance needs of whatever is stored under the dome.
• Ensure Uninterrupted Work: Create a dedicated undercover space for repairs, maintenance and/or assembly tasks. Keep your projects on schedule and within budget by minimising downtime caused by unpredictable weather conditions.
• Quality Workspaces: Container dome shelters provide a bright and airy weatherproof area and enhance a work site’s WHS compliance by providing a safe space for personnel.
