Substantiating parameters of short-delay blasting and seismic safety while constructing the inclined tunnel

Implementation of blasting works in mining engineering and underground construction requires new effective blasting technologies in conducting an explosion. Short-delay blasting is a technology that requires scientific substantiation of its parameters. The application of explosion technology with increased blast intervals between charges is characterized as successful. However, the degree of reduction of seismic action and, accordingly, an increase in seismic safety needs clarification of the parameters of short-delay blasting. The scientific paper analyzes the delay time of the blast of charges and the classification of the degree of damage to buildings and structures. Seismic safety parameters for the inclined tunnel “Skhidnyi” while tunneling at the quarry of the Inhulets Ore Mining and Processing Plant (in the city of Kryvyi Rih) have been substantiated. The functional dependence of the maximum vibration velocity on the seismically safe distance has been obtained, as well as the dependence of the coefficient, the value of which characterizes the mass of the explosive. This allows for a quick evaluation of seismic safety parameters when calculating the parameters of blasting operations in the case of short-delay blasting.
