What provides the majority of strength to an aluminum-sided container?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option C — Framework, primarily the corner posts

ISO container structural integrity relies primarily on its welded steel framework and heavy-duty corner posts rather than corrugated siding, allowing structural loads to transfer safely through stacking and lashing forces.
