It was difficult to apply conventional excavation methods in some sections from Seoul to Pusan high speed rail road construction of 1 lot 2, due to highway concrete road, gas pipe, water pipe and nearby factories with automatic control system machine. To excavate safely and efficiently in these sections new blast patterns were employed within allowable blast vibration level, by test blast and controlled vibration by sequential blast. Behaviors of the rock mass including convergence and displacement around tunnel were measured with construction works and the crack width in concrete wall was also monitored for controlling allowable limits. The results can be summarized as follow : 1. The allowable blast vibration level in structure site is less 1.0cm/sec for highway concrete, 0.5 cm/sec for gas pipe, water pipe and building housing and 0.3 cm/sec for automatic control system machine. 2. The convergence displacement, single rod extensometer and multi rod extensometer around tunnel and cracks in concrete wall were measured, it was confirmed that the measured values were converged within allowable level. 3. The empirical formular of ground vibrations with 90% confidence lines for PD-3 was given as follow. $$V_{90%}=45.549({\frac{D}{\sqrt{W}}})^{-1.353}$$

Blasting operations associated with rock excavation work may have an environmental impact in nearby structures or human beings. With the increase of construction work in urban areas, vibration problems and complaints have also increased. In order to determine the optimum design parameters for safe blast, it is essential to understand blast mechanism, design variables involved in blast-induced damage, and their effects on the blasting results. This paper deals with the characteristics of ground vibrations, air blast and fly rock caused by blast, including the general method of establishing the vibration predictors, and damage criteria suggested by various investigators. The results of field measurements from open pit mine and tunnel construction work are discussed. Basic concepts of how to design blast parameters to control the generation of ground vibrations, air blast and fly rock are presented.

In order to control tunnel blast vibration for adjacent facilities using electronic detonator, Understanding about the characteristics of near-field ground vibration is necessary. The purpose of this paper is to analyze effects of Cut-area and Extension-area vibration in relation to decision of tunnel blast vibration. These data were obtained at the top monitoring positions while ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ tunnel site of "Wonju~Gangneung double railroad section ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ construction" was passing under the existing road. Thus, tunnel blasting was conducted by tunnel electronic blasting system with 0.01% high delay-time accuracy. It can be possible that not only keeping maximum charge per delay-time but also preventing amplification of vibration which is occurred by delay-time scatter using common detonators. Additionally, V-Cut was changed into Burn-Cut. The results was presented that vibration level of extension-holes were higher than Cut-holes. Therefore, near-field ground vibration can be effectively minimized using electronic detonators in the Cut area. And also more effective way to reduce tunnel blast vibration is full-face blast using electronic detonators.

This paper investigates the possibility of controlling the response of typical portal frame structures to blast loading using a combination of semi-active and passive control devices. A one storey reinforced concrete portal frame is modelled using non-linear finite elements with each column discretised into multiple elements to capture the higher frequency modes of column vibration response that are typical features of blast responses. The model structure is subjected to blast loads of varying duration, magnitude and shape, and the critical aspects of the response are investigated over a range of structural periods in the form of blast load response spectra. It is found that the shape or length of the blast load is not a factor in the response, as long as the period is less than 25% of the fundamental structural period. Thus, blast load response can be expressed strictly as a function of the momentum applied to the structure by a blast load. The optimal device arrangements are found to be those that reduce the first peak of the structural displacement and also reduce the subsequent free vibration of the structure. Semi-active devices that do not increase base shear demands on the foundations in combination with a passive yielding tendon are found to provide the most effective control, particularly if base shear demand is an important consideration, as with older structures. The overall results are summarised as response spectra for eventual potential use within standard structural design paradigms.

In this study, various problems of ground vibration from rock blasting have been discussed, and field tests of rock blasting-ground vibration were carried out to find out the system of evaluation and control method for selecting blast design values and the rationale for the selection. Criterla of estimating structural response and damage caused by ground vibration from rock blasting are also discussed for the safety design of blast.

Recently, Electronic Detonators have gradually increased their performance for various purposes such as vibration control and improved Fragmentation. This study analyzed the vibration estimation equations of electric and electronic detonator blast by comprehensive analysis of the vibration data collected during electric and electronic detonator blast waves at the comparison sites of urban areas, geology and soil conditions, stone quarries and mines in different areas of Korea from June 2017 to December 2018. It has been confirmed that electronic detonator blast can meet the criteria for allowing vibration even if maximum charge weight per delay is increased by 1.5 times compared to the electric detonator blast.

This paper introduces the combination of two blasting methods applied to reduce blast-vibration and increase blast efficiency. NDC (New Deck Charge) blasting method using air deck effect with separation tube made of paper was effective to reduce blast-vibration, while blast efficiency was decreased a little in the bottom of a blasthole. Wide Space blasting method has an advantage to control the fragmentation and to increase blast efficiency over conventional blasting methods. In this study new blasting method combining NDC blasting method and Wide Space blasting method was applied to the field, it was confirmed to reduce blast-vibration and increase blast efficiency. It is expected to make useful blasting method to cover the public complaints and to shorten construction time by accumulating blasting data using new method with various conditions.

This paper concerns the active aeroelastic control of flapped wing systems exposed to blast and/or the sonic boom in an incompressible flow field. This is achieved via implementation of a robust estimation capability (sliding mode observer: SMO), and of the use of the deflected flap as to suppress the flutter instability or enhance the subcritical aeroelastic response to blast loads. To this end, a control methodology using LQG(Linear Quadratic Gaussian) in conjunction with SMO is implemented, and its performance toward suppressing flutter and reducing the vibrational level in the subcritical flight speed range is demonstrated. Moreover, its performances are compared to the ones provided via implementation of conventional LQG with Kalman filter.

Recently, the residence complaints have been increased by blast vibration and noise issue due to increased urban blasting works so that the trouble between construction company and residence have been continuously increased. Deck-charge blasting method using electronic detonator provided not only blast vibration and noise control but also minimized residence complaints through shortening of the blasting period. This blasting method will be widely used for maximizing urban blasting productivity.
