The simulating method of a residual life estimation of impactly loaded structures is presented. The loading is considered as a combination of both a continuous component which can be described by the theory of stochastic processes and various discontinuous events which have a shock and impact character. These events can be assumed as a poissonic process, and they must be simulated separately. The simulated loading is recalculated using some appropriate counting method and it create an input information for relationships of a residual life prediction.
