We consider the application of the Aichelburg-Sexl boost to plane and line
distributions of matter. Our analysis shows that for a domain wall the
space-time after the boost is flat except on a null hypersurface which is the
history of a null shell. For a cosmic string we study the influence of the
boost on the conical singularity and give the new value of the conical deficit.
