An overview of traditional and modern engineering systems used rockfall protection is given. The main parameters which are considered in the study of stone-fall processes and in the designing of structures against rockfall are analyzed. Features of the calculation and the global experience of using flexible rockfall barriers are described. Keywords: rockfall, structures against rockfall, flexible rockfall protection barriers, trajectory of rockfall, impact energy of rock
