2.3 Extent of checking

The following checks are to be carried out:

Visual: for damage, missing parts, condition of special equipment and accessories,
condition of markings.

Functional: all movable parts and mechanism, e.g. locks and safety devices.

2.4 Damage procedure

The degree of serviceability is to be determined and the prescribed procedure carried out.

Damage classified under Class II :

 the resulting operational deficiencies are to be clearly marked on the unit and remain for as
long as the unit is in this condition.

Damage classified under Class III :

 the unit is to be clearly marked as unserviceable and withdrawn from use.

2.5 Certificate of Inspection

Checks to determine the serviceability of units need neither certifying nor recording.

3. Inspections

3.1 Inspection intervals


Unit is to undergo inspection to ascertain their airworthiness:

 after each major repair


 after each major design change
 at the request of airworthiness authorities
 following usage involving special operating conditions

3.2 Responsibility

Inspections are to be made by independent inspectors, approved maintenance and repair shops
or the manufacturer. Responsibility for inspection rests with the company which transports the
unit in the aircraft.

3.3 Extent of Inspection

Inspections are to be made to ascertain:

 the proper execution of a repair or design change


 the serviceability of the unit
 that the unit conforms to the appropriate container specification
 correct coding and marking of the unit

3.4 Certification

Inspections are to be duly certified (on the appropriate airworthiness authority forms). Deviations
from this instruction need the approval of the airworthiness authority.

4. Classification of Damage

4.1 Types of damage


The effect of any damage on the further use of the unit is to be defined.

Class I - Minor Damage


Such damage has no substantial influence on the airworthiness of the unit and it can remain in
service. Unrepaired damage should be noted for future observation.

Class II - Medium Damage


Use of the unit is to be limited, e. g. the total weight must be reduced accordingly and the de-
creased load capacity clearly marked. Should this damage not be immediately repaired, the unit
must be marked accordingly and kept under observation, nevertheless repair must be carried out
as soon as possible.

Class III Major Damage


This is damage whereby the unit is clearly not airworthy and therefore it is to be marked
accordingly and withdrawn from service.

c) Base sheet

Damaged, uneven and distorted sheets and extrusions have to be replaced or repaired.

Small damages

One crack per 1 m2 (10.8 sq.ft.) up to a length of 100 mm (4”) or one hole with a maximum
diameter of 20 mm (0.8”). Distance between damages minimum 350 mm (13.7”).

These damages can be repaired as follows. Drill stop holes and close the damages by
welding. Grind welding flush on upper and lower surface. Stop holes should not be welded.

Larger damages

Larger damages then described above can be repaired as follows. Work out the damaged
area – min. 10 mm (0.4”) radii in the corners, no sharp edges. A doubler being on all sides
min. 30 mm (1.2“) larger than the
worked-out damage area has to be
riveted to the sheet. Distance
between the rivets max. 30 mm
(1.2”). Edges and corners of the
doubler have to be rounded off, no
sharp edges. Rivets should have
equal or better strength then original
base rivets. Doubler thickness min.
3.0 mm (0.12”) and material should
be equal or better then original base
sheet alloy.
A filling piece that fits properly in the
worked-out area should be riveted to
the doubler as to create a flush
bottom surface of the base sheet.

d) Rivets

Loose, missing or damaged rivets have to be removed and replaced by new ones, possibly
one number larger than the original rivet.

Repairs of shear panels fwd/aft, side and roof panels


Protruding edges and corners which, as a result of damage or repairs, being potentially
hazardous to persons or freight must always be removed. Uneven panels are to be re-leveled.

a) General

All damaged extrusions of the container, except roof panels, can be completely replaced by
removing of bolts and gussets.

In case of roof repair welding the WIG process shall be used.

Rivets and sealings must be removed to provide adequate access to the welding area, to
prevent sealings from burning. Welded areas are to be previously degreased. If necessary,
the surface of the welded area is to be ground, and the panel to be redressed. Finally, the
repaired area between skin and frame is to be sealed.

b) Stiffeners

Damaged stiffeners must be replaced.

c) Aluminium panel sheets

The damaged part is to be carefully drilled and cut out with at least 5 mm (3/16 in.) radius in
the corners. A new piece of sheet, having approx. 20 mm radius and at least 20 mm (25/32
in.) overlap on all sides is to be prepared. Match drill the patch and the panel, diameter 4.8
mm (3/16 in.). Fix the patch the damage to the flat sheet of the panel by means of blind
rivets (see page 401). Max. distance between rivets 50 mm (2 in.), min. distance from edge
of the patch and of the cut out 9 mm (11/32 in.). Sheet gauge min. 0.7 mm (.028 in.).

d) Polycarbonate panel sheets

The damaged part is to be carefully drilled and cut out with at least 5 mm (3/16 in.) radius in
the corners. A new piece of polycarbonate sheet, having approx. 20 mm radius and at least
25 mm (1 in.) overlap on all sides is to be prepared (please see page 404).

Match drill the patch and the panel, diameter 8 mm (5/16 in.). Fix the patch over the dam-
aged area to the flat polycarbonate sheet of the panel by means of lockbolts, washers and
collars (or screws, washers and nuts 1/4 in.), see figure below. Max. distance between the
bolts 50 mm (2 in.), min. distance from edge of the patch and of the cut out 12 mm
(15/32in.). Polycarbonate gauge min. 1.5 mm (.059 in.).

e) Herculight panel sheets

Inspect the panel area to be repaired for any burrs or frayed edges. Trimming should be
performed only for protrusions that extend beyond the plane of the panel. Trimming may be
accomplished with scissors, utility knife, or other trimming tool.

A patch may be cut any shape as long as a minimum of 38 mm (1,5”) patch overlap around
the damaged area is maintained.

Prepare the area for patching and the patch itself by thoroughly cleaning the surfaces with
an industrial grade 2-propanol (isopropyl alcohol). A patch should be applied within 30
minutes after cleaning, if not the surfaces should be re-cleaned.

For Damages falling under limits of class I - Allowable Damage

Prepare a patch by applying 3M 9472LE double sided tape around the outer perimeter of
the patch. Additional tape may be applied in the centre area of the patch if required.
Alternatively, pre-manufactured patches may be used.

Before peeling the paper backing from the patch, test fit the patch over the damaged area to

Container Type H1

pre-locate and align the patch for installation. Remove the backing paper from the patch
and firmly press the patch over the damaged area. Apply pressure to the full area of the
tape to create a proper bond. If ambient temperature is below 20ºC (70ºF), the patch should
be heated with the use of a standard hair dryer before pressure is applied to create proper
bonding.

Any Damage Exceeding Allowable Damage

Apply a patch by means of hot welding using hot air tool Leister Triac PID (or equivalent) set to
200ºC (392ºF). Apply heat to patch and panel, then apply pressure with a silicone pressure roller
to create proper bonding. A minimum of 38 mm (1,5”) patch overlap must be welded to the panel
being repaired.

Inspect areas for improper welding. If required, apply heat to such areas and apply pressure with
the silicone pressure roller again until proper welding is obtained.

f) Locks

Severely damaged parts are to be replaced.

g) Fabric

A piece of new fabric, being 30 to 40 mm larger on all sides, must be welded to the existing
fabric, or in the case of lengthier tears, sewn on. Adhesive should not be used. The corners
of the repair material are to be rounded off.

Repair of the door webbings


General

The webbing can be brought to a serviceable condition by repairing and/or replacing components
which are damaged by rough usage, improper load or accidents. The amount and classification of
damage determines the method of repair and/or replacement. For repair work standard aircraft
methods and techniques shall be used. Repair work shall be performed as described in the fol-
lowing chapter and fulfill the requirements of chapter Inspection.

The repair instructions as described in the following chapters can give a general view only upon
general repair work, and may be used as guiding principles.

CAUTION: REPAIR OF MINOR AND MAJOR DAMAGES REQUIRES AN INSPECTION FOR


CONTINUING AIRWORTHINESS WHICH SHALL BE ATTESTED BY A CERTIFI-
CATE OF INSPECTION FOR CONTINUING AIRWORTHINESS.

Material: Webbing Polyester width 25 mm (1”)


Min. breaking strength 20 kN (4409 lb)
Material: Thread Polyester 550 dtex, S380-490x3Z 250-350
Min. average breaking strength 85 N (19 lb)

Webbing

All materials used in the repair of webbings should be of the same or better quality and strength as
those used in the original manufacture.

1. Stitching
Worn out and broken stitching shall be restitched with the original pattern and thread size
after removal of old stitching (Fig. 1).

CAUTION: CUT OLD STITCHING WITH CARE TO


PREVENT DAMAGE TO WEBBING.

2. Webbing
When webbing is damaged or torn to at least approx. 20% of its strands it should be re-
paired as shown in Fig. 2 Webbings have to be cut with a hot wire for searing ends.

3. Hardware
Due to the constructive characteristics of all hardware it is more practical to replace it than
to perform a repair. Damaged hardware can be replaced as shown in Fig. 3 and 4. Repair
procedure for broken webbing is also shown.

Storage Instructions
Container

Each container will be carefully packed into a cardboard box or on a pallet suitable for air, rail and
road transport.

Sea transport requires that the cardboard or pallet units are shipped in an approved ISO Con-
tainer or under equivalent protection.

The packed unit must be carefully protected from rain and moisture during transport and storage.
Wet cardboard attacks the aluminium surface and results in a corrosion that cannot be removed.

All shipments are to be inspected upon receipt since the transport insurance companies will only
accept claims within a limited period.

The container can be stored during an unlimited period in its cardboard box until assembly of unit.
The quality of the sealing sections is to be checked only after more than five years.
