A frame assembly for a container trailer includes a longitudinal component
having a plurality of locating constructions. The frame assembly also
includes a plurality of cross-members, each of which includes a locating
construction for mating with a locating construction of the longitudinal
component. The locating constructions of the cross-members and the
locating constructions of the longitudinal component are located, sized
and arranged so that a locating construction of each cross-member may be
mated with a locating construction of the longitudinal component to
position the cross-members with respect to the longitudinal component.
