Shipping Container - Civil Engineer Needed :)

Hi All,

Is anyone / does anyone know a civil engineer?

We need to get the car park assessed for structural integrity before we can proceed with getting the shipping container.

Cheers,

Wouldn’t have thought you would have needed a loading assessment, given an empty shipping container weighs less than a large 4wd.

However, with the influx of people using shipping containers as permanent structures these days, councils in some areas are treating them the same as a building if they’re in place for some number of weeks, requiring planning permission. Worth asking the local council prior to purchase.

Where I use to live they were always very helpful in telling you what you needed to do when asked prior to starting.
