A transport and storage container consisting of a container body 1, known further parts and fittings has cooling ribs 2 on its surface. A web 3 is attached perpendicularly to a cooling rib 2 extending along the container axis. It is particularly advantageous if the cooling ribs 2 and the webs 3 are cast together on the container body 1.

By providing the web 3, the inevitable breakage of the cooling rib 2 in the event of a collision does not occur at the rib foot 6, where there is a risk of the crack spreading to the container body 1; They begin to appear at intervals. Selection of a suitable web height and suitable web spacing ensures that cracks occur at a safe distance from the container body. As shown by theoretical calculations and experiments, it is especially advantageous for the webs 3 to have a web height that is at most 2/3 of the height of the cooling rib 2 and a web spacing that is at most 10 times the web height. It is determined that

In a particularly advantageous embodiment, the cooling rib 2 is provided with a cutout 4 in the web 3, which cutout ensures the formation of a crack at the intended rupture point without penetrating into the container body 1. This acts in such a way that the crack does not extend beyond the distance provided by the web 3. The maximum depth of the cutout 4 reaches the upper limiting edge 5 of the web 3. The relatively small depth of the cutout 4 is likewise very advantageous in terms of design and materials. The recesses can be integrally formed at the same time as the cooling ribs are formed, or they can optionally be machined later.
