Acceptable and Unacceptable Repairs
Unacceptable, Non ConformingIICL Repairs
Repair not conforming to IICL standard and Florens' acceptable improper repair criterionshould be considered as unacceptable repair and rectified. When a repair is estimated asimproper, lessee bears the responsibility of proving that the repair was not performed whileon lease or the improper repair was present before lease out. An improper repair can beconsidered as unacceptable if any one of the following criterion is met:
Repair lacks structural integrity Repair may cause safety hazard or cargo damage Material used in the repair does not meet the strength requirement of the original material.
Note: If the repair cost to rectify an unacceptable improper repair is not to lessee's accountand the cost is above $50.00, detailed photos of the improper repair should be taken and sentto local Florens office for special approval. In addition to the photographs, a detaileddescription of the damage is also required.
The illustrations that follow should be used only as a guideline when making a decision on anonconforming repair. Each improper repair should be reviewed separately withconsideration given to the above criteria. If there is any doubt in classifying a repair asacceptable/unacceptable, please contact your local Florens office with photographs forfurther clarification.

Door and Door Hardware
In addition to the current IICL criteria, the following guidelines should be applied for the
door and the door hardware:
a) If a patch is required under the CSC plate, the original plate must be refitted. If the CSC
plate is lost or destroyed, it must be replaced. Contact your local Florens office to obtainthe CSC details for the container.
b) Door panel sections at the gasket area should always be butt welded and be flush with
the original panel. Note: Existing patches that overlap should not be replaced, as this isan acceptable improper repair.
c) When a full width insert or section is performed around the hinge blade, the hinge blade
should be removed from the door panel. Do not cut around the hinge blade.Note: Preexisting door repairs with a good quality weld is an acceptable improper repair.
d) Damaged or cracked hinge blades or pins require repair. The repair cost should be in the
account of lessee. Welded hinge blades are unacceptable and should be repaired in allcases.
e) Damaged or missing bushing in a locking bar guide or bracket requires no repair if thedoor operations are not interfered. However, if a guide or bracket is replaced, the repairshould include the installation of the new bushing.
f) Bent or distorted locking bar brackets require repair only if the door operationis hampered.
g) Missing or damaged door tiebacks do not require repair or replacement.
Note: If local conditions require tie backs to be present, replace tie backs on
Florens account.
h) Corroded gasket retainers do not need to be replaced or sectioned as long as it isefficiently securing the gasket in place.
i) The basic principle to apply to determine the repair worthiness of the gasket is lightleakage. If the gasket is light tight, no repair is required.

Preventive Maintenance / Reconditioning
Florens does not endorse cosmetic repairs on components that result from normal wear
and tear. Only a few and very limited items should be considered as maintenance whichcan be charged to Florens account. As a general rule, maintenance may be required only
when heavy corrosion may compromise the functionality and can lead to structural failure ofthe component. A typical example would be a loose door gasket resulting from
non-damage corrosion of the retaining strip. In addition, a corroded component should onlybe replaced when 50% or more of the entire component is affected, otherwise sectioning or
inserting must be considered, as this type or repair is more economical.
Example: Corroded gasket retainer. However,the functionality of the retainer to securethe gasket is intact.
Action:No repair is required.

Open tops
Technical criteria to be applied to open top containers are the same as any other Florens'
equipment, i.e. prevailing IICL standard and Florens' depot procedure. Componentsrequiring special attention are:
Roof bows:Roof bows that are cut, broken or do not fit properly should be repaired or replaced.
As dictated by IICL standard, the replacement bow material has to be "like for like" or
of higher quality. The surface of the roof bow should be smooth, snag free and withoutrough drip lines. The dimensions (camber/bow) must conform to ISO standards and allow
for proper water drainage. Florens' typical specification for roof bow is:
Material: STKR41 H.D.G (75 microns)Size: 34mmx3.0mm
Example: Replaced roof bow is of different geometry. It does not have roughdrip lines or jagged edges.
Action: Roof bow should not be replaced or repaired. This is anacceptable repair.

Tarpaulin:Repair estimates on tarpaulins should be in accordance with TIR standards.
A) At off-hire, when a tarp is missing or is not installed or partially installed on theopen top, depots should note this on the interchange and the estimate. Depots shouldalso obtain confirming signature from the delivering carrier. In addition, weatheringdamage on the floor should be noted. Protect the floor by stacking another container on top.
B) Following is the minimum specification for the replacement tarp: Weight: 18oz/500gms/sq.m Color: blue/BS445 Material: polyester, PVC coated
Grommets: carbon steel, galvanized to 40 microns.(bras, zinc and hard plastic grommets are acceptable)
Reinforcement at roof bow: none Reinforcement at side rails: none Markings: none
Note: Florens depots must replace tarp according to Florens' specifications. Different tarpcolor is acceptable only if all other specifications are met and Florens' customer makes
the replacement during lease.
Example: Tarpaulin color that is different than Florens' blue (BS445).Action: Different color is acceptable only if all other specifications are metand the tarpaulin is replaced during lease. Florens depot must replace tarpaulinaccording to Florens' specifications.

Replacement cost allocation: When it is more economical to replace the tarpaulinthan to repair, depots must replace tarpaulin.
Florens does not advocate lease period or age as factors to allocate repair costs betweendamage and normal wear and tear. Allocation for tarpaulin replacement that has damageand normal wear and tear above the economic value of the repair must comply with the
following steps. The cost should include labor + material.
1) Calculate total cost of repair (damage plus normal wear and tear. Include labor and material),for example, the total cost = $1000.
2) Calculate the percentage of damage cost. For example, the damage cost = $900, or900/1000 = 90%
3) Calculate the percentage of NWT cost.For example, the NWT cost = $100, or 100/1000 = 10%
Apply each individual percentage to allocate the replacement cost of the tarpaulin.For the above example, to replace a 40' tarpaulin at $400, the lessee allocationshould be $360, and NWT allocation should be $40.
Tarpaulin replacement versus repair: When the repair cost of the tarpaulin is 90% ofthe replacement cost, the tarpaulin should be replaced and not repaired. The additional costof replacement should be allocated as NWT to Florens' account. The additional cost shouldbe noted as a separate line item on the estimate.

Pinholes: Pinholes that are less than 5 mm (.20) in diameter can be repaired by usingone component polyurethane caulk (Sikaflex) or "donut" patches. Pinholes that are between5 mm (.20) and 10 mm (.40), must be repaired with a donut patch or a standard patch.In addition, no more than 4 pinhole repairs using caulking or "donut" within a 4"(10 CM)diameter is allowed, otherwise a standard patch must be applied.
Cuts and holes greater than 10 mm (.40): Cuts and holes that are greater than10 mm (.40) require a standard patch which should overlap by at least 15 mm (6) fromall the edges of the damage being repaired.
Patches greater than 100mm (4.0) X 100 mm (4.0): Patches greater than100mm (4.0) X 100 mm (4.0) must have TIR tape applied to the perimeter of the patch.
Existing intact patch without TIR tape is an acceptable repair during off-hire
inspection - no rectification is required.
Example: Caulked tarpaulin repair.Action:No repair is required.Note: Pinhole measuring less than 5 mm in diameter can be repaired
using one component polyurethane caulk.
Note: All repairs are permitted within an existing patch that is properly fitting to
the original tarpaulin. However, Florens does not recommend repair methods that
overlap over the seams of the pre-existing patch.

Procedure for abrasive cleaning and paintingcorroded compressor
Compressor must exhibit approximately 75% surface rust/corrosion before abrasive cleaning
and painting repair is done on it. Please refer to the Florens Technical and Operations Man-ual, section 8 pages 4 and 5 for guidance in selecting a candidate for this type of repair.
Preferred method of cleaning is to use the needle gun to abrasive clean the
surface rust and flaking paint. Other mechanical method of cleaning, such as
wire brushing is acceptable as long as the surface rust is removed properly.
DO NOT REMOVE THE COMPRESSOR FROM THE UNIT. Cleanand paint as much of the surface area as possible without removing the com-
pressor.

Aluminum Top and Bottom Rail sections that are less than the minimum required by
IICL (Must extend at least one meter from the corner casting) criteria may be considered
acceptable at termination. To be considered acceptable, the section must end midwaybetween the first and second side post and meet Florens general conditions of accepting
improper. (Depot repairs must be in accordance with IICL criteria).
Welding of aluminum top and bottom rails is not permitted. The only circumstance wherewelding may be accepted at termination, is when the weld is located at the splice joint and
a proper splice plate has been used. In addition, Florens general condition for acceptingimproper repairs must be met. (Depot repairs must be in accordance with IICL criteria)
Example: Welded aluminum top rail splice without splice plates.

Refrigerated Containers Addendum January 2004
RailsLower Web and Flange Damage Criteria on Bottom Rail:
Cuts, gouges, bends or breakage in the lower web and flange of the bottom rail may berepaired by installing doubler plate over the damaged area. The doubler plate must be
installed after first straightening the damaged rail without heat, and then drilling stop holes
at both ends of the crack. This repair method may only be used under the following conditions:
The area of damage may not extend above the lower edge of the rail by more
than 80 mm (3-1/8 in).
The area of damage must not exceed 600 mm (24 in) in length.
All other provisions shown on the current IICL manual continue to apply.
Example: Damaged rail is repaired by Example: The Rail is holed behind T-Clip.doubler plate. Action:No action is required if the above
Action:Noaction is required if the damage: criteria is met. If this type of repair exists Does not extend above the lower edge by at off hire, it is acceptable repair.

Panel Delamination in Refrigerated Containers (Reefers)
Panel delamination on any area of the reefer container is defined as a separation of the insula-
tion core from inner lining of the metal cladding. It can be caused by impact damage or dueto defects in the manufacturing process. It is important to distinguish the cause of delamina-
tion as this will allow correct allocation to responsible party when rectifying this damage.
As a general guide, delamination due to damage results from foam insulation being sheared
behind the bond line, leaving residue of the insulation on the cladding which is exposed topremature aging. This damage requires repair. While delamination due to defects, results in
the insulation skin being separated from the metal cladding. The insulation skin remainsintact, therefore does not cause premature aging. Depending on the location, size of the de-
laminated area, and the design of the container, delamination bolts should be used. Thesebolts should be used in a Sandwich Construction where insulated panels contribute a signifi-
cant portion of panel strength without embedded posts or stringers.
Regardless of the cause of delamination, repair is not required on the following areas of
the container:
Roof Exterior Panel (exterior cladding)
Side wall exterior sheet and post design. (sheet riveted to side posts)
Sub floor
T floor
Door exterior
Delamination that is not a result of impact damage must be repaired under the following
criteria:
Exterior Side wall: Over 40% of the total panel area is delaminated. Panel with no posts orpanel glued to side posts at 1250 mm centers. Delamination bolts must be used.
Interior Side wall: Use delamination bolts in all cases where the delamination is over 40%of the area of the panel.
Interior Roof: Repair is required when 30% of the panel area is delaminated. Use rivetswhen the stringer glued centers are at 1050mm.
Interior Door: Repair is required when one area exceeds 50% of the lining area. Use delami-nation bolts to repair interior door delamination.
NOTE: INJECTION OF ADHESIVE FOR DELAMINATION REPAIR IS NOT AL-
LOWED.

Panel Delamination in Refrigerated Containers (Reefers)
Installation of Delamination bolt:
Delamination Bolt: Cap Nut with Permaglas Rod 100 mm. Cap
nut is made of Stainless Steel (SuS). Rod Nut is made of Alu-minum.
Installation Instructions:
1) Make sure the container is level. Check / match diagonals.2) Using a template mark the location of the bolt on the interior lining of the
container. It is important to install bolts on the recessed area of the corru-
gation.3) Using jacks, position the cladding back tightly against the insulation be-
fore drilling the holes.4) After drilling holes, coat each hole using a spray food grade polyurethane clear coating. This
coating prevents galvanic reaction, so it is very important.5) Before installing the bolt, apply caulking underneath the head of the aluminum nut.
6) Install the bolts starting from the center of the panel working out to the ends. Bolt torque is 20ft
lbs (0.86m.kgs).
7) Cut of the excess permaglas rod. Affix rivets and seal with Sikaflex 221 or equivalent.
Note: Florens requires 5 tight bolts per 4 feet wide panel with one tight bolt in the center of the
panel and
Note: Side panel bolts are installed from outside to the inside, i.e. the nutsert is installed on the inte-
rior lining.

Placement of Tie bolts
Florens requires installation of 5 tie bolts for each 4 wide panel. The placement of the tie bolts should beas follows:
Secure one bolt directly in the center of the panel
Secure two bolts 2 below the top rail with each bolt 1 apart from the left and right
edge of the panel.
Secure two bolts 2 above the edge of the bottom rail with each bolt 1 apart fromthe left and right edge of the panel.
