Abstract
A shipping container comprises a container body which has a top, bottom and side walls with at least one of the side walls of the container having upper and lower longitudinally extending hollow chords. Each of the chords have top and bottom openings and interior baffles arranged to slope downwardly toward the openings for the removal of water and dirt entrained with air moving therethrough. The bottom wall of the container has a substantially U-shaped longitudinally extending beam which is located intermediate the length of the bottom wall and opens downwardly and has a top with at least one aperture therethrough and spaced upon said walls. A plurality of baffles are exposed in the beam and extend from a side wall downwardly toward the opposite side wall but terminate at spaced locations from the wall so that there is a downward opening therebetween.
