For this purpose, the research has been conducted as presented in this paper. The calculation is done for such a container. Firstly, the technical documenta-tion has been made, and the strength of structure during loading is calculated, and finally, the results of research are presented. In this paper, the observed structure is considered as a problem that belongs to the theory of thin-walled structures. The theory of thin-walled structures has been developed in the recent decades. This problem has been investigated by C.F. Kollbrunner, N. Hajdin, and S. Timoshenko, /1-4/. In recent years, problems of strength of thin-walled structures have been researched by W. Abramowicz and N. Anđelić, /5-7/. By applying the Finite Element Method, numerical calculation of structural strength is facilitated in greater detail, which a group of authors has researched, /8-11/. SUBJECT TO BE CONSIDERED The container terminal is a whole that is formed by two containers whose width is 3200 and 2900 mm and the length is 13000 mm, Fig. 1. Transport and manipulation of containers can be done only separately, by each container separately, Fig. 2, but not as a contingent of two containers. Containers are connected with bolts M20, the quality of 8.8. After connecting two containers, the joint location is covered with a special plate that is fastened with bolts. At the area of joining container roofs is a plate of special material resistant to all weather conditions. Containers are equipped with doors that have anti-panic lock whose purpose is to provide a safe exit from the interior of the container when the door is locked. Production technology is such that containers are mostly made of bended metal sheets (plates), so as to form a thin-walled structure. For example, pillars and belts are made of sheets 8 mm thick. In order to consider the thin-walled structure, the condition is given as, /3, 6, 7/:  1,10t ta b≤  (1) where: t is the wall thickness; a and b are cross-sectional dimensions.   Figure 1.

LOAD CONTAINER It is envisaged that the loads are like concentrated forces. These forces act on the floor of the container. Therefore, the stress analysis for the whole structure during loading has been performed. The effect of the normal stress is larger compared to other stress components, so stress calculation is reduced to check the normal stresses. Stress analyses have included standard calculations of material resistance (calculations of floor elements, welded joint shear, eccentric tensioning of pillars, buckling belts). Positions of elements that carry the structure are shown in Fig. 3.  Figure 3. Positions of elements that cross the floor of a loaded container and their weight. Weights of elements are given in Table 1. Table 1. Sizes and weight of equipment that supports the container floor.

CONCLUSIONS In this paper, the authors have presented the stress analy-sis of a 1300 × 3200 terminal container structural elements. Moreover, normal and shear stresses in the upper belt of the floor have a maximal value, and are within the allowed limits for the given material, Figs. 5-7. Container transport can be done only by a qualified person with the appropriate equipment and devices for transport. During loading and unloading of containers, the cables must be placed at an angle of 60° relative to the horizontal surface, and no one should stand in the zone of the container within a radius of 15 m. All equipment for manipulation (crane, chains, cables, hooks, etc.) should have the appropriate capacity and possess a valid document, proving that it has been tested. The containers have been successfully transported and are operating in the mining basin ‘Kolubara’, Fig. 10.
