CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS 
       [0001]    This patent application is a continuation-in-part and claims the benefit of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13/886248 filed May 2, 2013, which claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 61/641,877 filed May 2, 2012. The above applications are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety. 
     
    
     STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT 
       [0002]    The invention described herein was made by an employee of the United States Government and may be manufactured and used by the Government of the United States of America for governmental purposes without the payment of any royalties thereon or therefore. 
     
    
     FIELD OF INVENTION 
       [0003]    This invention relates to the field of armor and more specifically to construction of armored structures which comply with both ISO and State Department Standards. 
       BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
       [0004]    The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) currently uses shipping containers as components for transportable shelters to protect troops from ballistics and explosives. This system is known in the art as a Hardened Alternative Trailer System (HATS). 
         [0005]    The HATS structures must comply with the U.S. Department of State Certification Standard for Forced Entry and Ballistic Resistance of Structural Systems, SDSTD01.01, without exceeding stringent ISO weight and dimensional specifications. USAGE has conducted considerable laboratory research to develop a HATS shelter which concurrently meets most standards. U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13/886,248 (the &#39;248 Application) teaches precise specifications developed by the government to meet ISO Standard No. 668:2013 for twenty-foot structures. 
         [0006]    At present, over four hundred structures having the specifications taught in the &#39;248 Application have been fielded “in theater.” At a cost of several hundred thousand USD per structure, this technology represents investment in the range of $100,000,000 to the U.S. government. 
         [0007]    Despite the commercial success of the technology taught in the &#39;248 Application, there is an unmet need in the art for a system which complies with the requirements of ISO Standard No. 668:013 for larger forty-foot structures.

         [0074]    In optional step  244  method  200  welds door frame assembly  33  into endwall assembly  30  or sidewall assembly  60 . 
         [0075]    When fabricated, unit  100  conforms to ISO standards for shipping containers, having outer dimensions of 40 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 8.5 feet tall, and a maximum weight of 66.139 lbs. Unit  100  also meets the U.S. Department of State Certification Standard for Forced Entry and Ballistic Resistance of Structural Systems, SDSTD01.01 
         [0076]    It will be understood that many additional changes in the details, materials, procedures and arrangement of parts, which have been herein described and illustrated to explain the nature of the invention, may be made by those skilled in the art within the principle and scope of the invention as expressed in the appended claims. Moreover, the term “approximate” as used herein may be applied to modify any quantitative representation that could permissibly vary without resulting in a change in the basic function to which it is related. 
         [0077]    It should be further understood that the drawings are not necessarily to scale; instead, emphasis has been placed upon illustrating the principles of the invention.

Summary:
The present anti-ballistic shelter is a reinforced unit configured to comply with both ISO standards for size and weight, and with the U.S. Department of State Certification Standard for Forced Entry and Ballistic Resistance of Structural Systems. Each end and side wall of the unit is reinforced with wall studs that penetrate the unit&#39;s structural framework. Even though these wail studs are welded into place, penetration of the wall studs into the framework ensures acceptable blast, ballistic, and forced entry resistance even if the welds are flawed.
