The reference dimension for an outwardbow in a side panel is A. 5 mm (3/16 in) B. 10 mm (3/8 in)
from its original position. If the deflection is greater than the limit, repair isrequired. Envelope Damage Criteria ANS:->> Envelope damage criteria are commonly usedfor out- of-ISO and into-cube damages. Envelope damage criteria are based on allowing a component to deflect any amount provided the component stays within a reference plane or between a set of referenceplanes. The reference planes are usually planes that form an envelope on one or both sides of the component. The reference planes are often not physical surfaces on the container. Instead, they are virtual planes positioned in space a specified distance from physical surfaces on the container. When a component is permanentlydeflected beyond the reference plane, repair is required. All rails, including side rails, headers and sills // Repair if ............

The replacement itself is called a patch. (patching is only allowed for panels, and may substitute for inserting those components. For all other components, patching is not permitted unless otherwise stated in this manual) Sectioning ANS:->> To restore a damaged component to its original size, shape and strength by cutting out a portion of the component that extends through its full profile and welding or fastening replacement material of the original size, shape and strength in place.
