The optimum design of rockfall protective shelters resistant to quasi-static, strong earthquake and impact loading, requires the use of modern computer codes implemented with the consti-tutive equations developed and calibrated on the mechanical properties of the materials; they should be measured with precision tests in a large range of strain rate in the most common deformation modes like tension, compression and shear and under combined loading. It is not obvious to underline the requirement of measuring the material properties with preci-sion experiments because, especially under impact loading, in case of not well designed testing experiment the records of material response are strongly affected by the stress wave inte-ractions and reflections inside the testing equipment which render the record analysis very difficult and of low accuracy; therefore in this paper special attention is given to the definition of a correct impact testing rig and the relative results obtained on plain and fibre reinforced concrete.
