| Abstract: |
Reinforced concrete rock sheds are usually covered by a layer of soil as a shock-absorbing cushion. To better understand the damping abilities of this cushion in order to estimate the impact action, an experimental study has been carried out. Blocks stimulating falling rock blocks were dropped from various heights on a reinforced concrete slab covered by different fill materials. After describing the test and measuring devices, the experimental results are analysed and mathematical expressions for some of the problem variables are presented. |
