Abstract: The present subject matter is directed towards impact resistant structures. The structures comprise a support truss having at least two side frames, each comprising at least two vertical members connected at the upper end thereof with a horizontal member. The support truss further comprises a rear frame comprising at least one vertical frame post extending above a height of the vertical members. The structures also have a load-bearing assembly comprising at least one vertical load-bearing post spaced apart from the frame post, at least one horizontal load-bearing beam extending at least between the at least one vertical load-bearing post and the frame post; and at least two inclined load-bearing beams substantially extending from the at least one horizontal load-bearing beam to the at least two side frames.
