Technical Questions

[headquarters]

A thread to debate the technical aspects of how stuff works -

I will start off by asking :

what would be the armour value of a standard steel shipping container -the kind that come of the boat from china - app 10 meters long ,3 m wide and 3 m tall -you have seen the kind in any number of ports you have passed or even on a flatbed truck on the road .

I am after the "generic" type that can be found everywhere .Anyone know about this ?

I am assuming they are made from cheap steel or some such and want to know what kind of cover they will provide in a firefight .

assumed as empty of course -not
stacked with kevlar vests hehe..
