1   Scope

   1.1    This International Standard covers the minimum design and operational testing requirements for general purpose base-restrained containers exclusively intended for the lower deck compartments of main line civil transport aircraft, capable of being used by either airlines or shippers and requiring airworthiness authority approval (certification). 
 
   
     NOTE 1  The metric equivalents for dimensions have been rounded up or down to the nearest millimetre, except in critical dimensions. Masses have been rounded up to the nearest kilogram and forces have been rounded up to the nearest 10 N. 
 
 
   
     NOTE 2  Containers with other base sizes than those specified by this International Standard can also be built to a lower deck contour, but they need not be carried exclusively on the lower deck. See [ISO 10327](/search?q=ISO%C2%A010327).
