In this study, we examined the assembly and components of a 40-feet container chassis based on its 3D shape. Utilizing the finite element method, we conducted structural analysis considering the total weight, including the 40-ton weight specified in automotive regulations, along with a safety margin of 1.5 under extreme load conditions. And also fixed and junction conditions were applied to the chassis system. Subsequently, we presented the maximum stress results derived from the structural analysis of both the overall chassis system and its individual components. Finally, we evaluated the structural stability of the 40-feet container chassis by comparing and reviewing the maximum stress with the yield strength of the material used for each component.
