Drilling and Blasting Part I: Blasting Lecture Notes and Tutorials - edizione con copertina flessibile

Best results in blasting are achievable from considering all influential mining and geological factors in the establishment of the parameters of blasting rounds charge design most fit to deliver the desired degree of fragmentation and blasting economics. The course content is focused on understanding the formulations of commercial explosives and initiation systems used in surface and underground rock blasting; the mechanisms of explosive rock fragmentation in various mining and geological conditions; the techniques of rock blasting used in surface and underground mining and construction; trouble shooting in surface and underground blasting; blasting computations and optimization of blasting rounds charge design and firing in any mining and geological conditions of surface and underground blasting.
