Purpose: The core problem of this study is that there are no specific noise regulation standards for domestic blasting work. Currently, the domestic blasting work noise regulation standard has not been established separately, and the noise regulation standard of 80 decibels is corrected by 10 decibels to 70 decibels, which is the daily living noise standard. In contrast, many foreign countries have separate noise regulation standards specifically tailored to blasting work. Accordingly, it is intended to present international reasonable blasting noise standards by comparing domestic and foreign blasting work noise regulation standards. Mmethod: This study can be inferred as a comparative analysis of domestic and foreign noise regulation standards. Data on the current noise regulation standards during domestic blasting and noise regulation standards during blasting operations in the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, Japan, and China are collected and analyzed. Results: According to the study, the noise regulation value during blasting work at domestic construction sites was not separately established, so it was not properly tailored to the specific and characteristics of blasting noise. In the case of overseas, a realistic noise regulation value was established so that a safer, more efficient and eco-friendly blasting method could be applied to the noise regulation value uniformly during blasting work. Conclusion: In this study, it is hoped that noise regulations will be established during reasonable blasting work, as shown in domestic and international comparative studies, and will be widely adopted without interfering with the introduction of efficient, economical, and eco-friendly blasting methods by complying well with blasting safety standards.

Explosive blasting is a very useful tool for mining and civil engineering applications. It, however, may cause severe environmental hazards on adjacent structures due to blasting impact. Blast engineers try to make optimum blast design to provide efficient performance and to minimize the environmental impact as well. It requires a pre-assessment of the impacts resulting from the blasting operation in design stage. One of the common procedures is to evaluate the proposed blast pattern through a series of test blasting in the field. Another approach is to evaluate the possible environmental effects using the numerical methods. There are a number of input parameters to be prepared for the numerical analysis. Some of them are well understood, while some are not. This paper presents some results of sensitivity analysis of the basic input parameters in numerical modelling of blasting problems so as to provide sound understanding of the parameters and some guidelines for input preparation.

Recently, the utilization of underground space for research facilities and resource development has been on the rise, expanding development from shallow to deep underground. The establishment of deep underground spaces necessitates a thorough examination of rock stability under conditions of elevated stress and temperature. In instances of greater depth, the stability is influenced not only by the geological structure and discontinuity of rock but also by the propagation of ground vibrations resulting from earthquakes and rock blasting during excavation, causing stress changes in the underground cavity and impacting rock stability. In terms of blasting engineering, empirical regression models and numerical analysis methods are used to predict ground vibration through statistical regression analysis based on measured data. In this study, single-hole blasting was conducted, and the pressure of the blast hole and observation hole and ground vibration were measured. Based on the experimental results, the blast pressure blasting vibration at a distance, and the response characteristics of the tunnel floor, side walls, and ceiling were analyzed.

It is very difficult to clearly define the damages caused by blasting-induced noise and vibration, because the damages depend on, besides the level of noise and vibration, the response of the object, environmental conditions, subjective feeling, and mental condition. Especially, it is more difficult when the fish is concerned, because that experimental approach is not easy and that we lack of the reasonable criterion for the acceptance level of noise and vibration. In Korea, the acceptance level for damage due to underwater noise is 140 dB re $1{\mu}Pa$, and the difference from the underwater background sound level is defined as more than 20 dB re $1{\mu}Pa$. It is however, appropriate for continuous noise not for transient sound. The authors compared the relationship between vibration velocity and underwater noise measured from the test blasting around Marphysa sanguinea farm. This paper presents the measurement results and suggestions the acceptance level for damage due to underwater noise from explosive blasting.

Explosive blasting in tunnel excavation produces ground vibration and air blast as its side effects, which may cause complaints from nearby residents. This study was intended to investigate the propagation characteristics of ground vibration induced by tunnel blasting and to evaluate its effects on the residential structures near the site. We have conducted field measurements for 6 blasts and acquired vibration data from 70 measuring points, some of which on positioned inside the tunnel for comparative reason. Various documentation was reviewed to determine an allowable level of peak particle velocity for the residential structures in the area and the allowable limit was set to 0.5 cm/sec. Propagation equations for peak particle velocities were derived from regression analyses using the data acquired at both the surface and the underground tunnel. Finally we proposed appropriate predictive equations for the two areas and a safe blasting criterion.

In blasting for lighting, fatigue behaviors of pillars such as destruction and deformation may occur due to blasting vibration and flyrock, which may cause collapses of cavities. This study aims to identify dynamic behavior of pillars to maintain efficient safety of cavities in large drafts. when they collide with flyrocks under blasting for the excavation. For the purpose, we compared ground vibration around pillar when flyrock collided with the pillar and that when explosive blast happened for the excavation. we conducted fragmentation analysis of the flyrock and compared impact vibration obtained from empirical equation with ground vibration obtained from regression analysis of real vibration data. also we compared those with results analyzed from numerical analysis.

A large scale blasting is necessary for the construction or road, harbor or ground foundation of building and it is common that the blasting work is performed by a specialist subcontracted from the construction company who is originally responsible for the project. Sometimes the latter do not agree with the former in total amount of blasted rock. They try to find out real work amount as precisely as possible. The estimation is sometimes carried out by an entrusted person when it is impossible to come to an agreement with each other. There are several methods in estimating the blasted rock volume; a calculation by prescribed equivalents of explosive before construction, a calculation by specific charge per unit volume of rock, and a calculation by rock volume per detonator. In this study, the last method is reviewed and recommended as most reliable one.

In surface mining, it is very important to create a mining area for economical mining. This study examined the contribution of design factors on slope stability with different slope design and blasting conditions. The design factors were the properties of the rock, the slope angle and the bench height, and the blasting conditions were reflected at different explosive weight and distances. The safety factor of slope was calculated by shear strength reduction method through 3D modeling, and the contribution rate of rock slope was 94.8%, which is relatively higher than other design factors, slope angle 0.89%, bench height 0.58%, and blasting It is shown that it affects about 3.73%, and it can be seen that blasting at a close distance can affect the stability of the slope.
