A stone-blocking structure composed of waste tires is presented.The tires are tightly connected together by reasonable binding with wire rope

and then the structure is bound to waste rail or reinforced concrete pole.Energy of rockfall is absorbed by elastic plastic deformation of waste tires when the structure is impacted by rockfall.A stone-blocking structure model composed of waste tires is designed to study the protective effect of the new structure.The model is struck thrice with 20 kg poise adopted to simulate the rockfall.Problems needed to be thought over in the engineering application of the new structure is proposed considering the effect of binding mode and rockfall impact energy on the anti-impact pro-perties of the new structure

which has important reference value for application of the new stone-blocking structure.
