This article is aimed at the analysis of the behavior of a fiber-reinforced concrete slab in contact with subsoil during dynamic loading in close proximity. The properties of such slabs are important for evaluating their dynamic response, though the properties of the subsoil environment through which the vibrations propagate must also be taken into account. The analysis itself was performed on the basis of the results obtained from experimental measurements during seismic excitation with a calibrated impact. There were three concrete slabs tested, with varying amounts of fiber. The standard Vistec seismic instrumentation was used for measuring the dynamic response. The results of the experiment were processed in both the amplitude and frequency domains, and a graphic comparison in the waveform and frequency fields was made. The results acquired from this experimental research may support a more objective approach during the evaluation of dynamic impacts ranging from anthropogenic impacts to building structures.
