Foldable container houses are a new type of temporary construction facilities. When not in use, they can be folded into a relatively flat shape, which is convenient for transportation and storage. Their main structures usually adopt high-strength steel, such as light steel frames, to ensure the firmness and stability of the houses. For example, the yield strength of the steel used in the frames of some foldable container houses can reach more than 235MPa.

For the wall parts, sandwich insulation panels are generally used. These panels are composed of two layers of thin metal sheets (such as color steel plates) on the inside and outside and the insulating materials (such as expanded polystyrene foam, rock wool, etc.) in the middle, which can not only provide good thermal insulation but also enhance the overall airtightness of the house.

• Farm workers' dormitories: They can be used as dormitories for farm employees.
• Construction sites: They serve as workers' dormitories, canteens, warehouses, etc. After the construction project is completed, they can be easily folded up and transported to the next construction site for further use.
• Emergency rescue: After natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods occur, foldable container houses can be quickly transported to the disaster areas, providing temporary shelters, medical aid stations, distribution points for relief supplies and other places for the affected people.
• Field operations: In the field operation sites such as oil exploration and mining, they can be used as offices, dormitories, tool rooms, etc. Their excellent sealing and thermal insulation properties can provide a comfortable working and living environment for field workers.
