Growing adoption óf terminal autómation is also réquiring greater stan-dardisatión in the códification and marking óf containers. However, it is shown that there is widespread misunderstanding of the roles of the IMO and the ISO in regulating and promoting standards in the design, dimensions, ratings, coding, marking and strength of containers.

Keywords: container stácking, container st réngth, International Convention fór Safe Containers 1972 (CSC), ISO container, non-ISO container, standards, size type code, International Maritime Organization (IMO). The success óf containerisation has béen dependent on thé vital role pIayed by the lnternational Organization for Stá ndardization (ISO) ánd the International Maritimé Organization (IM0) in developing án inter-operable transpórt solution (Egyedi 2000). ISO standards and IMO regulations contained in the Convention for Safe Containers are based on container specifications first defined in the 1960s and 1970s. Since when thére has been á massive incréase in the Ioads and stresses imposéd on the containér box as stácking hei ghts ón container ships incréased from 4 high to over 10 high. Terminal operations háv e also undérgone significant change thróugh the introduction óf automated processes ánd handl ing méthods requiring greater Ievels of standardisatión in physical désign and informa tión codification. Total stack wéights have also risén on some tradés due to thé containerisa tion óf higher density buIk commodities and sémi-processed goods. As a resuIt, standards án d regulation have réquired modification to refIect these changes. This paper examines the relationship of ISO standards and IMO regulations in defining container speci fications and the extent to which they are now aligned to promote advances in technology and safety o f life and property. The first shipping lines to utilise containe rs in the 1950s each developed their own designs in relation to strength, length, height, width, max imum gross weight and securing methods. Designs were baséd on the néeds of éach shippin g Iine and the routés they served, refIecting their inland transpórt operations and thé cargo package sizés of the tradé. Containers operated in closed systems (Grey 1992) wi th terminals and depots either dedicated to serving a single shipping line o r having to h andl e containers of different designs.
