The demand of the bulk emulsion explosives is being increased more and more by using the mechanization loading system in a domestic tunnel sites. Thus, a rational design criteria that is suitable for rock and circumstance condition has been required. In this study, authors investigated a optimum specific charging weight and resonable charging weight based on domestic blasting construction cases, which were performed by using a mechanization bulk emulsion explosives loading system up to now. Authors also analyzed the blasting results and got the following formula $({\Upsilon}= 0.669 + (0.0154{\times}RMR),\;r=0.81)$ from the relationship between a optimum specific charging weight of bulk exp. and rock mass rating. A range of resonable charging weight with a drilling depth is calculated considering a rock conditions.

Lately, the length of tunnel, the number of large-long tunnel over three lanes are steeply increased because of the request for high speed and straight road. Therefore, the maximization of excavation efficiency is needed in tunnel construction. Bulk Emulsion explosives charging system is the spearhead equipment using the radio remote control $&$ mechanization system compare with a traditional method Cartridge type. This study introduced the bulk emulsion explosives which is new method in tunnel blasting and verified the efficiency of bulk emulsion explosives for long-large tunnel. And we tried to compare Cartridge type efficiency with bulk emulsion explosives efficiency by the field test.
