Large Container Construction & Testing

The final three chapters of Part 6 detail the provisions for the design, construction, inspection, and testing of several types of large containers. These chapters and their subjects are as follows:

  • Chapter 6.7 - Portable Tanks and Multiple-Element Gas Containers (MEGCs)
  • Chapter 6.8 - Road Tank Vehicles
  • Chapter 6.9 - Bulk Containers

Chapter 6.7 provides specific information for design, construction, inspection, and testing of portable tanks intended for the transport of dangerous goods in Class 1 and Classes 3 through 9, and also for the transport of Class 2. A final section addresses MEGCs. Chapter 6.8 focuses on road tank vehicles, addressing both road tank vehicles for long international voyages and for short international voyages. Each road tank vehicle section includes design and construction, approval, testing, and marking.
