The paper deals with the response analysis of interaction of a gaseous impact wave with a plate structure with particular reference to the character of the excitation impulse. In order to determine the criteria of assessment of window structures exposed to the shock effects an analysis of the influence of the parameters of the loading pulse on the character of the time function of the response and the magnitude of the dynamic coefficient for the given load type was made. For the given purpose particularly the steepness of the front of the impact wave and the duration of the pulse load in comparison with dominant natural frequency of the structure and the influence of the consideration or neglect of the underpressure phase of the load were assessed. The assumptions and results of theoretical solution are compared with experimental results.
