ABSTRACT:
An improved freight container for use in intermodal freight transportation systems that includes lift castings having a top lift aperture located on the lift casting at an outboard position, such that when other containers are stacked on top of the improved container, loads are properly distributed through reinforcement beams of the improved container, thereby substantially reducing bending stresses in the improved container, substantially reducing the possibility fatigue failure of the improved container, and reducing the costs of maintenance and inspection of the improved container.
