1.1

This International Standard covers the minimum design and operational testing requirements for general purpose base-restrained containers exclusively intended for the lower deck compartments of main line civil transport aircraft, capable of being used by either airlines or shippers and requiring airworthiness authority approval (certification).

NOTE 1 The metric equivalents for dimensions have been rounded up or down to the nearest millimetre, except in critical dimensions. Masses have been rounded up to the nearest kilogram and forces have been rounded up to the nearest 10N.

NOTE 2 Containers with other base sizes than those specified by this International Standard can also be built to a lower deck contour, but they need not be carried exclusively on the lower deck. See ISO10327.

1.2

This International Standard does not cover the performance requirements and ultimate load testing parameters for approval by airworthiness authorities (certification), which are covered in ISO21100 or, for units approved prior to 2012, ISO8097:2001. The design and operational testing requirements of this International Standard are additional to those of these standards.
