Abstract
An RPC carpet covering ~10**4 m**2 (ARGO-YBJ experiment) will be installed in the YangBaJing Laboratory (Tibet, P.R. China) at an altitude of 4300 m a.s.l.. A test-module of ~50 m**2 has been put in operation in this laboratory and about 10**6 air shower events have been collected. The carpet capability of reconstructing the shower features is presented.
