Blasting technology aims to maximize digging efficiency as well as minimize vibration and noise. So, it is key point of blasting technology to raise blasting effect as much as possible and reduce vibration and noise and the design of PLHBM that is the tunnel blasting method having such merit was studied in this paper. PLHBM has the excellent blasting efficiency as it drills the empty hole with high caliber of 250~1,000mm at centre cut, contributes to blasting vibration reduction effect much and can be usefully applied to tunnel blasting sites. So it is judged that it enables the development of tunnel blasting method to be advanced one more step by studying and suggesting the design method of PLHBM.

In case of urban blasting works at near neighbors, the size of one blasting should be minimized to reduce the vibration and noise. However, the complaints is not decreased due to increased numbers of blasting per day so that the period of blasting works become long. This case study is related to urban apartment construction site. In order to overcome the weakness of general detonators which is required many blasting times to meet the day productivity, we have been applied deck-charge blasting method using electronic detonators and then we successfully increased the day productivity with much less blasting times. Hence, we had effectively achieved the declined neighbors'complaints and shortening construction period.

In the past, explosives like dynamite was used to blast rock. However, today it is difficult to use explosives in urban blastinglike excavation for subway, building, and housing land. According to Korea Department of Construction and Transportation's proposal for blasting design manual and test blasting, from TYPE I blasting to TYPE IV blasting are recommended when we determine 0.3cm/sec(centisec) as a maximum allowable ground vibration with a distance between $25m\~120m$ from structures. This article was written to introduce one of TYPE I (reck blasting within 25m from structures) blasting method, Nano-Plasma blasting method. When Nano-Plasma blasting method is applied in urban blasting job, ground vibration (15m away from blasting point) is expected 0.1cm/sec, which is only half of a ground vibration when low ground vibration blasting method is applied. By this unique characteristic, Nano-Plasma blasting method is epochal urban blasting technique.

Nowadays it is tendency to make a remodelling or demolition of old structures with the rapid development of blasting technique. In this treatise it is arranged of improvement procedure of blasting demolition method in korea which was begun since August 1991. Recently, the blasting demolition method has much merits with 60-70% reduction effect of construction period than mechanical demolition method. and so that it has much economical points specially over than 5 storied high buildings. In order to maximalize economical effects of the blasting demolition method, environment safety and recycling, it must be needed. at first to develop the estimating programs against vibration, noise, flying stones, and dust. Also it is required to take a responsibility for using recycling materials after blasting demolition of old structures, and to be invested to advance the blasting demolition techniques.

A study about economical blasting methods which can improve fragmentation and save explosive in blasting is in progress. One of the blasting methods is an air decking method making air layers in boreholes. However, it is difficult to apply this method to the boreholes filled with water. In this study, an underwater Air Tube was manufactured and tried to place it at a certain location in a water filled borehole. It was found that the application of underwater air tube in wet boreholes could improve the fragmentation and save 10~15% of the explosives.

Reflecting the fact that there are increasing number of old high-story apartment structures in urban area, it is expected that the demand of blasting demolition will increase in the near future. It is of great important to make up for the insufficient empirical knowledge in blasting demolition through priori method such as computer simulation. Computer simulation of the blasting demolition involves complicated process. In the past domestic researches, two-dimensional bonded particle model was used to examine the overall demolition behavior of a five-story simple structure. It was observed that the two-dimensional simulation did not properly simulate the collapsing behavior of a structure mainly due to the reduced degree of freedom. In this study, three-dimensional simulation was tried. It consumed a great amount of calculation time, which limited the extent of the study. A few parameters, such as delay times, amount of charge at each hole, ball properties, were modified in order to check oui; their effect on the collapsing behavior. The differences were observed as expected but the collapsing behavior did not exactly coincide with the test blasting with a scaled model.

Although studies evaluating the effects of the blasting vibration on the adjacent structures from various angles have continued, cases of securing the safety of the adjacent buildings and researching the proper blasting method for the field condition by analyzing the vibration waveform of the measuring field while performing the open pit blasting are poor. Therefore, it is necessary to present a remedy for blasting pattern selection through test blasting that is appropriate for field conditions, and is economical and efficient. In this study, open pit blasting work was conducted based on the separation distance applied according to the standard blasting method by test blasting and the vibration regulation standard in the road expansion construction site to measure the blasting vibration value, and the vibration prediction equation by blasting methods was examined using a regression analysis computer program to calculate K, N, and R of the confidence level 95%. By setting the blasting allowed vibration standard of the test blasting target area to 0.3cm/sec, and the charring weight and blasting method by the separation distances according to the blasting vibration estimation equation of the open pit blasting guideline and the blasting vibration estimation equation of the test blasting were compared/analyzed, it was possible to identify the factors that increased the working expenses. In addition, the measurement and analysis of the adjacent structures during open pit blasting and the blasting vibration were performed after selecting the most adjacent structure to the open pit blasting spot to analyze the problems on the test blasting procedure and analysis method in the open pit blasting design/construction guidelines, which appeared in the process of completing open pit blasting construction, and a remedy is presented.

본 연구는 일반건설현장에서와는 달리 천공경이 $97mm{\Phi}$이상이고 천공장이 21M이상인 상태에서 발파작업이 진행되고 있는 석회석 광산에서 기존의 발파공법과 Air tubes를 이용한 발파공법을 비교하여 기존의 발파로 인한 상부 대괴를 감소시키고 폭약의 사용량을 줄이면서 진동 및 폭음을 최소화하여 보다 경제적인 작업수행을 하기 위해 연구하였다. 한편 에어층(Air deck)을 형성으로 인한 전색장의 길이 감소를 보완하기 위해 라바플러그(Rubber Plug)를 사용하므로 비석의 위험을 최소화 시키고 가스압이 암전체에 충분히 전달할 수 있도록 장치를 만들어 실험하였다. 그 결과 일반발파와 Air tubes를 이용한 발파방법을 비교하여 볼 때 Air tubes를 이용한 발파방법이 폭약을 약 15~30% 절감 할 수 있었으며, 또한 진동은 최대 50%정도의 감소와 폭음에서는 2~5dB 정도로 감소되었다.

The number of industrial structures that must be demolished due to functional and structural deterioration has been increased. There is an increasing application of explosive demolition or explosive demolition combined with mechanical demolition to minimize temporal and spatial environmental hazardous factors created during the process of demolition. In this case study, to demolish the turbine foundation structure, which is a large-section reinforced concrete structure, the parital explosive demolition thchnique was conducted. As a result of the partial explosive demolition, the overall crushing of the blasting sections of beam-column joints structure with haunched beams and second-floor columns about the turbine foundation was satifactory, and the explosive demolition was completed without causing any damage to surrounding facilities.
