There is a rear pressure bulkhead, which provides basically no resistance from something going through it. There is also a small metal lip on the back of the main deck 747-400 floor near the pressure bulkhead.

Atlas had a 747 classic get written off because the rear pressure bulkhead was punctured by improperly packaged/loaded cargo.
