Parameters of Swedish bench blast design was analyzed by robust design method. Orthogonal array which is adopted in this study was $L_9(3^4)$ and the parameters were hole diameter, explosive type, hole inclination and rock factor of 3 levels. Result of analysis showed that maximum and minimum burden are most affected by hole diameter, followed by explosive type, rock type and inclination of hole. Parameters affecting specific charge are in the order of rock type, explosive type and to specific drilling are hole diameter and explosive type. Cost analysis showed that robust design is capable of parameter optimization.

This study aims to predict the particle size of blasted rock. For this purpose, Predicted particle sizes were compared with the measured particle sizes at the rock blasting sites, where various blasting patterns which controls the bench height, depth of blasted hole, burden, spacing etc were tested. the difference of mean fragment size between measured and predicted values was 0.11m.

First of all, Under given condition such as bit gage of 36mm Drill bit with right class of jack-logs experimental test carried out from two face of Bench, firing of each hole brought 90 degree Angle face and them measured length of Burden and charged ammount of powder as following. (equation omitted) A=Activated Area A=ndi=m S=Peripheral length of Charged. room Ca=Rock Coeffiecency d : di=Hole diameter When constructed subway of Seoul in 1980 the blasting works increased complaint of ground vibration. in order to prevent the damage to structures. Some empirical equations were made as follows on condition with Jackleg Drill (Bit Gage ø 36mm) and within 30 meter distance between blasting site and structures. V=K(D / W)$\^$-n/ N=1.60-1.78 K=48-138 Project one of contineous works to above a determination of empirical equation on the cautious blasting vibration with Crawler Drill(ø 70-75mm) in long distance.

Using Electronic Detonators which is well known for controlling vibration, we have been studying Orchestra Blasting Method, OBM, for many years to transform the unpleasant blasting sound to favorable sound in some job-sites such as tunneling and bench blasting which have to been taken place near some structures needed great care. In this study, we focus on rhythmical sense. First, we acquired individual wave from a shot. With the program named the Program Blasting Wave, PBW, it was analyzed and found that its best delay time was 34ms and 50ms was acceptable. Also, delay time was fitted into the music which was accepted after analyzing the rhythm. As a result, the blasting sound along with the music felt comfortable as if the music was played with base drum.

In this study, the domestic bench blasting sites were researched to set the blast coefficient C according to the type of rock and type of industry. With the use of the experimental data on the representative industrial explosives and the data of the manufacturers'data on explosives, powder coefficient e was set up. The blast coefficient C was 0.21~0.30 when the average value for 5 representative kinds of rocks including granite was searched. The blast coefficient C for quarrying, mining and construction sites were 0.22, 0.13 and 0.26 respectively. On the other hand, powder coefficient e was obtained in four elements such as reactive energy, ballistic mortar test, VOD, Langefors'strength per unit weight. e value for emulsion which is one of the representative explosives was found to be 1 while those of high performance emulsion and ANFO were found to be 0.9 and 1, respectively.

Ground vibration and noise from blasting operation are known to be the most representative constituents which can cause human and material damage. In this study, the effect of delay time on ground vibration is investigated by adopting seven different delay times in bench blasting. For each delay time, three blasting operations were performed. The prediction equations for blasting vibration are derived from 50 sets of measurement and the time theory of Langefors is evoked in the analysis of the blasting vibrations and frequencies. For the delay times of 8 ms and 28 ms, the average values of ground vibration are 5.76 cm/sec and 5.75 cm/sec, respectively, which are considerably low. Also the cyclic variation in the vibration measurements with the delay time confirms the interference effect. From the application of the measurements of blasting vibration and frequency to the time theory of Langefors, it is concluded that the optimum delay times are 8 ms and 24 ms for the test site.

Recently, various techniques and patented methods on blasting operation are being newly developed. In this study, test construction of the MDS blasting method was performed, and the fragmentation size and the occurrence rate of rocks exceeding 300mm were measured and analyzed in comparing to normal blasting method. Test construction was performed three times each for normal and the MDS at the same bench for each round, and fragmentation size(P80) and occurrence rate of rocks exceeding 300mm(S30) were measured using digital image processing. A sieve bucket was also manufactured on-site to sort oversized rock particles from muck piles, and their weights and equivalents were measured to calculate actual values. As a result, the fragmentation size decreased of 21.0% with the MDS compared to normal, and 100-S30 decreased of 10.1%, with actual values decreasing of 7.6%. Although there were variations in blasting effects for each round due to differences in rock quality at site, overall, the MDS proved to be more effective compared to normal blasting method under equivalent conditions.

Korea-America tungsten treaty is not only Earnning Us Dollar but also it was turnning point of tunnelling technology development such as a burn cut. Because 10th of specialist worked at Sangdong mine under treaty. The first of all, Experimental blasting pattern for single free face carried out. As a result it has brought the burden and $charge/m^3$ and also space distance. After the center holes are blasted. Remain of the works was the implementation of bench cut against the openning to make the full sectional are required. $Ca=\frac{A}{SW}$ where as A =ndi=m activated area S = Peripheral length of Charged room Ca = Rock Coefficient di=Holes diameter Later in 1980, The Oynaite Explosive is Replaced into Emulsion & Milli-Second Delay Electric Cap. Seqential Blasting machine were Applied in the Site. The Subway Tunnelling have been worked so Carefully for Vibration and Noise to near Shopping and housing area. We carried out Empirical formula to solve city Envoirement pollution as follow For Granite: $V=KW^{0.57}D^{-1.75}$ For Granite : $V=KW^{0.5}D^{-1.5}$ V=PPV(cm/sec) K=Coefficency D=Distance(m) W=Amount of power/delay(kg)

국내 석회석 광산에서는 벤치 발파패턴을 현장의 KNOW-HOW에 따라 가장 경제저인 발파패턴을 적용하고 있다. 그러나 인건비 재료비등 제반경비가 상승함에 따라 좀 더 효율적인 발파방법의 개선이 요구되고 있는 바, 현 석회석 광산에서의 발파패턴을 보다 개선하여 경제적인 발파패턴을 적용하고, 그에 따른 고려해야 할 사항들을 본 논문에서 연구 하고자 한다. 따라서 국내 석회석 광산의 발파 패턴과 외국의 광산발파 패턴을 비교하고, 수치해석을 적용하여 기존의 발파 패턴에서 장약길이, 공간격, 장약량의 변화, 천공경은 102mm에서 115mm로 변화하고 장양방법을 단일장약에서 이중장약으로 변화하여 동해 쌍용자원에서 시험을 실시하였다. 연구 결과 장약길이의 20% 감소는 Power Factor를 (20%)낮게 하나, 파쇄효과는 28% 감소하고 Back Break가 (7%)이상 발생하였으며, 천공경을 115mm로 적용하고, 장약길이를 11% 감소를 위하여 이중장약을 적용하여 Power Factor를 10% 낮게 하였을 때 파쇄효과는 22.45%가 증대되었으며, 기존 동일 패턴에 Booster를 추가로 적용하였을 때 파쇄효과는 13.21% 가 증대되었고, Power Factor는 11% 가 감소되는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Slope optimization aims to maximize the slope angle in an open pit mine, resulting in subsequent profits from additional ore extraction. The large open pit mines have adopted the advanced technologies to increase slope angle until they ensure the slope stability. This paper introduces a current stage of slope optimization efforts and best practices from the open pit mines.
