you can’t modify them in any way without compromising the structural integrity of these things. that crinkle isn’t just for fun, its part of what makes the whole thing rigid enough not to fall apart. If you start cutting into that, you have to come up with a whole new support structure and might as well just build it normally.
Yeah. You probably shouldn’t cut out all the sides then stack them in a 274 ton stack.
Edit: I think I am wrong here. An intermodal tank is a nonstructual tank in essentially the same frame as a container has. There are some small supports to prevent racking but they are pretty small and the frame is still capable of being in a nine stack.
How do you suppose side door containers hold up. Did you know you can open the doors on a container in the stack?

Actual prefab buildings though? That’s workable.
