Core structured components, containers, and methods of casting

A structural component cast from a molten material, the structural component comprising:

• an external wall;
• a cast first outer wall portion of the external wall;
• a cast second outer wall portion of the external wall;
• a cast third outer wall portion of the external wall having a generally planar configuration;
• a cast internal support structure extending between the first outer wall portion and the second outer wall portion;
• and
• a plurality of compartments positioned within the internal support structure;
• the external wall substantially enclosing the plurality of compartments;
• the internal support structure comprising a plurality of internal walls;
• said plurality of compartments comprising a first set of compartments and a second set of compartments;
• said first set of compartments separating said second set of compartments from said external walls;
• at least one of said second set of compartments defined by internal walls of the internal wall structure and openings on the internal walls connecting adjacent compartments;
• at least one of said openings extending between said first set of compartments and said second set of compartments;
• wherein the internal support structure comprises a plurality of rectilinear support members, each of the rectilinear support members comprising a solidified material formed by a corresponding molten material flow path provided by a core structure used to cast the structural component;
• wherein said rectilinear support members and said external wall are integrally formed and include a solidified material;
• wherein at least one of the rectilinear support members extends parallel to the third outer wall portion and is connected between the first outer wall portion and the second outer wall portion to enhance a structural integrity of the structural component;
• wherein the rectilinear support members comprise a plurality of internal walls defined by the compartments;
• and
• wherein the cast internal support structure and the cast first, second, and third outer wall portions are integral and comprise a solidified material.
