ABSTRACT:
A frame structure for a tank container comprises two end frames 10 and two side protection assemblies mounted between corner support elements 11 of the end frames 10. Each side protection assembly is formed by a bottom longitudinal beam 21 and a fender beam 22 disposed above the bottom beam 21 and connected thereto by a plurality of vertical struts 24. Each side protection assembly is detachably connected to the respective pair of vertical corner support elements 11 so that it may be removed, dressed or replaced by a new assembly and again mounted in place in case it has become damaged. Fixation of the side protection assemblies to the corner support elements 11 is done by means of triangular fixing members 30 welded to the corner support elements 11. Each fixing member 30 includes a horizontally extending support arm 31 which extends parallel to and backs end portions of the bottom horizontal beams 21 which are thus available for engagement by container handling devices.
