Claim 9:
10. A method of fastening an ISO container to a structure, the method comprising:
(a) attaching a first fastening device to the ISO container, the first fastening device having an elongated frame with longitudinally-opposing first and second ends, the second end having a hook member inserted into a first corner casting on a surface of the ISO container that is upwardly-facing in operable position, the first end of the elongated frame is disposed along a vertical sidewall of the ISO container in operable position;
(b) attaching a first member end of a first tie-down member to the first end of the first fastening device and attaching a second member end of the first tie-down member to the structure;
(c) tightening the first tie-down member, thereby tending to draw the ISO container tightly against the structure;
(d) attaching a second fastening device to the ISO container, the second fastening device having an elongated frame with longitudinally-opposing third and fourth ends, the third end having a hook member inserted into a second corner casting on the surface of the ISO container that is upwardly-facing in operable position and spaced from the first corner casting, the fourth end of the elongated frame is disposed along the vertical sidewall of the ISO container in operable position;
(e) attaching a third member end of a second tie-down member to the fourth end of the second fastening device and attaching a fourth member end of the second tie-down member to the structure; and
(f) tightening the second tie-down member until the second tie-down member is oriented transverse to the elongated frame of the first fastening device, thereby tending to draw the ISO container tightly against the structure.
