Rock Blasting and Explosives Engineering explores the practical engineering aspects of many different kinds of rock blasting. It provides an overview of the underlying science of rock mass and material strength and covers a range of topics, including thermal decomposition, burning, shock initiation, the detonation behavior of explosives, and systems for charging explosives into drillholes. The authors also provide working descriptions of detonators and initiation systems and an analysis of the cost of tunneling by drilling and blasting versus full-face boring. Fundamental in its approach, the text is based on the practical experience of its authors and is supported by many tables, diagrams, and figures.
