Modular Shelter Applications & Use Cases
The 26ft x 20ft container dome (8m x 6m) provides a wider-span shelter solution designed for sites that require increased lateral clearance while maintaining a compact overall footprint. Mounted to standard 20ft shipping containers, this configuration is well suited to applications involving wider equipment, vehicles, or work areas that benefit from additional internal width.
This dome size is commonly selected where standard 6m-wide shelters are insufficient, but a larger footprint is not required.
Common Applications
The 26ft x 20ft container dome is frequently used for:
- Machinery and equipment storage
- Small vehicle and plant protection
- Maintenance and service bays
- Materials and tools storage
- Covered operational or staging areas
The wider internal span improves access and usability for equipment with broader operating envelopes.
Site & Industry Use
Construction Sites
Provides sheltered space for wider machinery, tools, and materials, helping maintain productivity during adverse weather conditions.
Industrial & Trade Applications
Used for workshops, maintenance areas, or temporary operational cover where additional width improves workflow.
Agricultural & Rural Use
Commonly used for housing farm machinery, implements, or general-purpose storage requiring wider clearance.
Configuration Options
The 26ft x 20ft container dome is typically supplied in an open-ended configuration, with enclosure options available depending on site requirements.
Modular & Relocatable Design
As a container-mounted structure, this dome configuration can be:
- Installed without permanent foundations
- Relocated between sites
- Reconfigured as operational needs change
This flexibility makes it suitable for both temporary and evolving site requirements.
Engineering & Compliance
CDS container domes are supplied as engineered shelter systems suitable for Australian site conditions. Site-specific factors such as wind exposure, terrain, and location should be considered during planning and installation.
Engineering guidance and certification options may be available where required.
