What you will be able to do after this lesson
You will read the INTERMODULE size range and know which sizes can be transported without a special permit.
Why it matters
INTERMODULE uses two width families, 2 435 and 2 990 mm, and a fixed range of lengths. The 2 435 mm width fits within the 2 550 mm road limit and is transported without a special permit; 2 990 mm is already oversize, and its transport is costed separately. A corridor module can have its own width, including 2 000 mm.
The internal height is chosen from the range 2 340 / 2 540 / 2 700 / 3 000 mm; the external height starts from 2 600 mm. For module compatibility, not only length and width matter but also finished floor and ceiling levels: without them, a single building ends up with steps and differing ceilings.
The Academy does not propose one universal size for the entire market. Compatibility families are more practical: within a family, modules from different manufacturers join by geometry and levels.
| Parameter | Values | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Width | 2 435 or 2 990 mm | 2 435 mm travels on Kazakhstan roads without a special permit; anything wider than 2 550 mm is transported as oversize |
| Length | 2 435 / 4 885 / 6 055 / 7 335 / 12 000 mm | a fixed range, not a span; 12 m is based on a 40-foot body |
| External height | from 2 600 mm | depends on the chosen internal height and roof design |
| Internal height | 2 340 / 2 540 / 2 700 / 3 000 mm | from finished floor to finished ceiling |
| Corridor module | width 2 000 / 2 435 / 2 990 mm | the net passage width is verified against the design and evacuation requirements |
How to apply this on a project
- Step 1. Remember: INTERMODULE uses the 2 435 and 2 990 mm width families and a fixed range of lengths.
- Step 2. A corridor module can have its own external dimension, for example 2 000, 2 435 or 2 990 mm.
- Step 3. For compatibility, not only length and width matter but also finished floor and ceiling levels.
- Step 4. Verify the transport conditions for each dimension against the route and the design.
Typical mistake
Declaring any size "standard for transport" without checking the actual route and restrictions.
