Quantifying the effect of rock mass quality on peak particle velocity for underground drift development
In prior research the existence of the strong relation between peak particle velocity (PPV), as a result of blasting, and damage to civil structures and mining excavations has been well established. In essence, the higher the PPV levels, the greater has been the observed damage to a structure or exc...
