Blasting of Rock in Mines, Quarries, Tunnels Etc

W. Daw Albert, W. Daw Zacharias

Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. It is a remarkable fact that the theories of rock blasting which have been generally adopted, do not take into account the influence of the form of the chamber employed, seeing that the initial force of the blast, and the resistance of the rock will largely depend thereon for any direction of the line of resistance. The methods by which the rules and formula were deduced are fully explained, and examples of all the more important calculations are given to assist the engineer to deal with any question that may arise in practice, especial attention being directed to how the greatest economy may be attained in the boring of holes and consumption of explosive.
