The typical blasting method adopted in Pasir Coal Mine is a surface blasting technique with a single free face. It means that there is only one free face, which is usually the ground surface. This kind of blasting method is easy to use but inevitably causes enormous ground vibrations, which, in turn, can affect the stability of the slopes comprising the various boundaries of the open pit mine. In addition, the method also has the problem of lowering the blast efficiency compared to other methods such as bench blasting methods or ones with more than two free faces. In this respect, a project was launched to develop a new blasting method that is suitable for controling the ground vibration and enhancing the blast efficiency. As a part of the project, authors investigated the current blasting method as well as the overall pit developing process in the mine, and established some important guidelines that should be observed during the whole development process. This paper presents the details of the typical blasting pattern and the pit developing method in the mine, and suggests the guidelines determined from the results of the observations.

Variables influencing the free face movement due to rock blasting include the physical and mechanical properties, in particular the discontinuity characteristics, explosive type, charge weight, burden, blast-hole spacing, delay time between blast-holes or rows, stemming conditions. These variables also affects the blast vibration, air blast and size of fragmentation. For the design of surface blasting, the priority is given to the safety of nearby buildings. Therefore, blast vibration has to be controlled by analyzing the free face movement at the surface blasting sites and also blasting operation needs to be optimized to improve the fragmentation size. High-speed digital image analysis enables the analyses of the initial movement of free face of rock, stemming optimality, fragment trajectory, face movement direction and velocity as well as the optimal detonator initiation system. Even though The high-speed image analysis technique has been widely used in foreign countries, its applications can hardly be found in Korea. This thesis aims at carrying out a fundamental study for optimizing the blast design and evaluation using the high-speed digital image analysis. A series of experimentation were performed at two large surface blasting sites with the rock type of shale and granite, respectively. Emulsion and ANFO were the explosives used for the study. Based on the digital images analysis, displacement and velocity of the free face were scrutinized along with the analysis fragment size distribution. In addition, AUTODYN, 2-D FEM model, was applied to simulate detonation pressure, detonation velocity, response time for the initiation of the free face movement and face movement shape. The result show that regardless of the rock type, due to the displacement and the movement velocity have the maximum near the center of charged section the free face becomes curved like a bow. Compared with ANFO, the cases with Emulsion result in larger detonation pressure and velocity and faster reaction for the displacement initiation.

일반적으로 장공발파(長孔發破) 방법(Long hole blasting method)은 그동안 주로 대규모 채탄막장이나 댐 기초굴착, 광산 등에서 행하여져 왔으나 최근 토목터널에서 시공 효율성 및 경제성을 목적으로 관심이 높아지고 있다. 기존의 터널설계 패턴은 I -Type을 기준으로 3.5~3.8m 천공이며 신공법 적용시 최대 4.Om까지 설계되는 것이 보통이었다. 과거 착암장비는 천공장이 늘어남으로서 슬러지에 의한 천공속도가 저하되어 천공비가 증가하기 때문에 빠른 슬러지 배제가 필요하고 Rod의 휨 현상에 의한 천공오차의 증대를 초래할 수 있는 단점이 있었다. 그러나 최근 장비의 발달로 인하여 천공각도 및 천공장 등을 Computer로 모니터링하여 제어할 수 있어 정밀한 천공이 가능하여 졌고 또한, 고성능 에멀젼계 폭약(Super Emulsion)의 개발로 그동안 극 경암터널에서 에멀젼계 폭약의 단점으로 여겨졌던 비 장약량의 증대와 사압현상의 발생, 굴진효율 저하문제론 극복할 수 있었다. 따라서 본 연구는 현재 건설중인 대상현장을 중심으로 장공 터널발파의 효율성과 경제성을 분석하고 나아가 암질에 따른 새로운 Type별 설계기준을 마련하는 기초자료로서 활용하고자 하였다. 된 연구의 대상현장은 충북 괴산군 영풍면 소재 중부내륙(여주-구미간) 고속도로 제 9공구 이화터널 건설공사현장으로 $\varphi{102mm}$ 무 장약공 Cylinder 4공을 이용한 심발법을 사용하였으며 천공장은 최대 5.0m로 2000년 11일 15일에서 동년 12월 15일까지 31일간 총 112회의 시험발파를 실시하여 평균 92%의 높은 굴진 효율을 기록하였다.

Till now a lot of studies has been performed to increase the efficiency of tunnel blasting. Nevertheless there are still uncertainties of input parameter to determine the specific charge. In order to solve this problem, the rock types and the charges of 17 road tunnel sites were analyzed. As a result of these analyses an empirical formula depending on rock type and charge was developed. Through this formula rational tunnel blasting will be designed by quantitative method rather than by assumption.

A drill & blasting method using explosives is the most efficient way to break the rock in the urban projects. However, the blasting method cause vibration, noise and fly-rock as blast pollutions so that blasting wroks are restricted by adjacent structures such as apartment and residence houses. To conduct blasting works at near structures, the numbers of blast-holes a blast and the size of the blast are limited by kinds of detonators and initiation methods. So, the production rate is reduced and the construction period should be increased. Therefore, in this case the deck-charge blasting methods using available detonators in domestic market were designed and evaluated in order to confirm the application possibilities in specific urban sites.

Environmental regulations in Korea for blasting at industrial sites have conservative standards, which often result in reduced efficiency and cost-effectiveness due to the consideration of environmental regulations and public complaints. Therefore, there is a need for blasting methods that can reduce environmental damage while improving construction efficiency and cost-effectiveness. In this study, we analyzed the effects of the PA-Deck (Paraffin Air-Deck) blasting method, which is a kind of Air Decoupled Charge method in principle utilizing a paraffin-infused paper tube as an air gap, on reducing blasting hazards and improving blasting efficiency. The analysis also evaluated the effectiveness of newly applied equipment for collecting blasting vibration data, and derived the relationship between the explosion velocity and vibration velocity of explosives, and performed frequency analysis of the vertical component. The results of the blasting vibration velocity analysis showed that the Paraffin Waxed Paper Tube-based blasting method exhibited significantly lower vibration velocities compared to conventional blasting methods, and it was judged that more uniformly small-sized fragmented rocks were generated.
