The analysis of ground vibrations induced by bench blasting at Akyol quarry and practical blasting charts

Ground vibrations arising from excavation with blasting is one of the fundamental problems in the mining industry. Therefore, the prediction of ground vibration components plays an important role in the minimization of environmental complaints. In this study, 582 events were recorded during limestone production at a quarry (Akyol Quarry) during a period of time. The blasting parameters of these shots were also carefully recorded. During the statistical analysis of the collected data, three predictor equations proposed by the United States Bureau of Mines (USBM), Ambraseys–Hendron and Langefors–Kihlstrom were used to establish a relationship between peak particle velocity and scaled distance described by these prediction equations. As a result of this analysis, the most powerful relationship was determined and proposed to be used in this site. And also, this equation was used in the derivation of the practical blasting charts specific to this site as a practical way of predicting the peak particle velocity and maximum charge amount per delay for future blasting.

Bench blasting design based on site-specific attenuation formula in a quarry

This research was performed on the quarry that will be opened to produce aggregates and rock filling material at Catalagzi region at Zonguldak province in Turkey. However, there are some structures which can be adversely affected by blasting at the quarry. These structures are a methane exploration drill hole and a house at the distances of 340 and 390 m, respectively. One of the main goals of this study is to perform a preliminary assessment of possible damage effect of ground vibrations induced by blasting on these structures by risk analysis based on ground vibration measurements. In order to propose a preliminary blast design models separately for aggregate and rock filling material production, six test shots with different maximum charge per delay were planned and fired at the quarry. In these shots, 90 events were recorded. To predict peak particle velocity (PPV), the relationship between the recorded peak particle velocities and scaled distances were investigated. During this investigation, the data pairs were statistically analyzed and a PPV prediction equation specific to this site with 95% prediction line were obtained. And also, this equation was used in the derivation of the practical blasting charts specific to this site as a practical way of predicting the peak particle velocity and maximum charge per delay for future blasting. A risk analysis was performed by using this equation. In the light of this analysis, preliminary blast design models were proposed to be used in this quarry for aggregate and rock filling material production.     

浅埋大跨隧道施工爆破监测与减震技术

以沪-蓉线庙垭分岔隧道工程为背景,研究了其浅埋大跨段掘进爆破的地表震动效应及大断面开挖减震控制技术,并结合爆破监测数据的回归分析,确立了地震波垂向衰减规律的数学模型。综合分析地表及洞内地震波的震动特性发现,地表质点振动主振频率主要集中在低频段;由于表土的滤波作用,主振频率随距离的增加而减小的趋势并不明显;洞内混凝土衬砌减弱了爆破对围岩的冲击,高频地震波衰减极快;开挖区上部的地表振速通常大于未开挖区的振速,浅埋大跨隧道爆破安全控制应以已开挖区顶部的地表振速为准。     

直墙半圆拱巷道爆破震动数值分析

为利于判断巷道围岩在爆破荷载作用下的稳定性及巷道内壁混凝土衬砌的安全,采用ANSYS/LS-DYNA分析了巷道钻爆法掘进爆破荷载作用下震动区岩体的动力响应。结果表明,近区岩体内部爆破压力、单元有效应力、质点振动速度随爆心距的衰减规律基本符合萨道夫斯基经验公式,单元有效应力与质点振动速度的衰减规律具有很强的相关性;巷道围岩临空面上的质点振动速度以沿巷道方向的振动速度为主,巷道横截面内垂直临空面方向次之,横截面内沿临空面方向为最小。巷道同一横截面处各质点的振动波形基本相同,拱顶的振动速度峰值比帮部的要大10%左右,拱与帮的连接处振动速度峰值较小。巷道围岩沿巷道方向临空面上质点振动速度衰减规律也基本符合萨道夫斯基公式,以上分析结果对采用钻爆法进行岩巷施工时,控制近区震动区爆破荷载对结构的影响具有一定的指导作用。     

Environmental impacts of bench blasting at Hisarcik Boron open pit mine in Turkey

This paper presents the results of ground vibration measurements carried out in Hisarcik Boron open pit mine located on the west side of central Anatolia near Kütahya province in Turkey. Within the scope of this study to predict peak particle velocity (PPV) level for this site, ground vibration components were measured for 304 shots during bench blasting. In blasting operations, ANFO (blasting agent), gelatin dynamite (priming), and delay electric detonators (firing) were used as explosives. Parameters of scaled distance (charge quantity per delay and the distance between the source and the station) were recorded carefully and the ground vibration components were measured for all blast events using two different types of vibration monitors (one White Mini-Seis and one Instantel Minimate Plus Model). The absolute distances between shot points and monitor stations were determined using GPS. The equation of square root scaled distance extensively used in the literature was taken into consideration for the prediction of PPV. Then, the data pairs of scaled distance and particle velocity obtained from the 565 event records were analyzed statistically. At the end of statistical evaluation of the data pairs, an empirical relation which gives 50% prediction line with a reasonable correlation coefficient was established between PPV and scaled distance.

分岔隧道是一种新型隧道结构形式。以漆树槽分岔隧道为工程背景,进行了掘进爆破的围岩震动效应试验,通过不同掏槽结构下爆破震动作用隧道围岩衬砌质点振动速度的频谱分析与质点振动速度幅值的分布情况分析,对小间距公路隧道混凝土衬砌及其围岩在爆破地震波作用下的力学特征进行论述,重点研究了小间距隧道中隔墙及爆破掌子面的震动特性及变化规律。试验与分析结果表明,（1）中墙迎爆侧为振速峰值区,以水平径向振速最大,且沿着中墙走向呈现规律性变化;（2）掏槽孔爆破产生的地震效应最为强烈,其震动强度是扩槽眼和周边眼的2倍左右;（3）衬砌振速主振频率主要分布在低频段,以20～95 Hz为集中频段,高频地震波衰减极快;（4）同一测试断面中最大振速峰值出现在拱顶和边墙中部位置的概率最大,且大小比较接近,爆破掌子面附近的振速不适合萨道夫斯基预测公式,受爆破夹制及自由面的影响较大。     

爆破开挖对岩体含水裂纹扩展的扰动机制

岩体裂纹的水力劈裂是岩体开裂渗漏甚至施工涌水的重要影响因素之一,也是岩土工程界的研究热点。从断裂力学角度分析了爆破开挖对岩体含水裂纹扩展的扰动作用,结果表明,爆破开挖扰动下,岩体含水裂纹的扩展,与爆炸应力波强度及其入射角、地应力的大小与方向、孔隙水压大小、裂纹的倾角及断裂韧度等因素相关;爆炸应力波的作用,相当于增大了岩体裂纹中的孔隙水压力,每1 cm/s的峰值振动速度相当于增大100 kPa的孔隙水压力,爆破振动速度越大,所产生的爆破扰动荷载越大;岩体开挖引起的岩体裂纹近区地应力及其孔隙水压力的变化,对裂纹的失稳与扩展具有较复杂的影响,可改变裂纹的失稳扩展模式。     

邻近既有隧道的新建大断面隧道施工参数优化分析

结合大帽山隧道Ⅴ级围岩段施工参数优化的试验,通过爆破震动速度、岩体声波波速和围岩内部位移的现场监控量测工作,研究既有隧道旁新建大断面隧道双侧壁导坑法施工时岩体的损伤程度和范围,进而优化导洞的单循环进尺、爆破参数等施工参数。研究表明：推进式往复爆破作业的双侧壁导坑法开挖的隧道必然导致围岩产生一定程度的损伤、破坏,尤其是小净距隧道间的中夹岩岩墙;双侧壁导坑法开挖的大断面隧道,控制岩体的损伤程度和损伤范围是相互矛盾的,通过减少单循环开挖进尺来减少爆破震动速度,只能控制岩体的损伤范围,多次的重复爆破导致损伤岩体的损伤程度更大,极大影响围岩稳定;相反,通过适当加大单循环开挖进尺来控制损伤程度的同时,过大的爆破震动速度导致损伤范围更大,极大影响邻近既有隧道的安全运行。利用现场监测数据,通过在UDEC软件中实现的岩体各向异性爆破损伤模型,计算导洞推进式开挖全过程围岩压力的变化和既有隧道支护结构的状态,综合考虑各种因素,优化得到折中的单循环进尺。     

The mitigation of the vibration effects caused by tunnel blasts in urban areas: a case study in Istanbul

Ground vibrations generated by commercial explosives in tunnel construction may cause structural damage in urban areas. Therefore, suppressing the vibration effects and mitigating the possible hazard after blasting is important. We present a new method of controlled blasting that is environmentally friendly, and easy to utilize for tunnel construction. Small charges in this method are detonated sequentially to produce minimum side effects. The efficiency of the charges may be increased based on the previously monitored shots. This method is utilized in a tunnel construction in Istanbul with five experimental shots. In these experiments, the duration and also the quantity of explosives were carefully controlled. We were able to obtain better results with short durations (480 ms) instead of long durations (9,000 ms) although the vibration levels defined as peak particle velocity (PPV) became bigger while the quantity of the explosive charge increased from 3.088 to 9.264 kg.

A new damage criteria norm for blast-induced ground vibrations in Turkey

Environmental problems such as vibration and air blast are often faced and discussed in mining, quarrying, civil construction, shaft tunnel, pipeline, and dam operations, where blasting is inevitable. It is necessary to establish national standards in order to minimize environmental problems induced by blasting and judicial matters in our country as it is in the USA, European Union (EU) countries, and other developed countries. This necessity and the obligation of Turkey, which has started the procedure of joining the EU, to accept EU criteria emphasize the importance of this study. In other words, the establishment of a particular national standard related with this subject is inevitable for Turkey. This will be possible only by studying and applying scientific methods and techniques by experts. This paper presents a new damage criterion norm for blast-induced ground vibrations in Turkey. In this study, first, numerous vibration records were taken in blasting operations performed at different sites and rock units. For these rock units, particle velocity predictions and frequency analysis were done. At the same time, structures in the neighborhoods of these blasts were also observed and investigated. Finally, a damage criterion norm based on risk analysis was established and proposed by using these collected data. In light of the norm to be obtained from the data that were collected in the research, it will lead the excavation work in our country to be performed in such way that they are more effective and will cause minimum environmental problems.     

花岗岩地区地铁隧道爆破振动传播规律研究

青岛为典型花岗岩地区,地铁隧道开挖采用钻爆法。本文首先采用现场实测与统计分析的方法分析了青岛地铁3号线3个工点的隧道爆破监测数据,较为系统地研究了钻爆法施工条件下地表及邻近构筑物的最大振速、主频分布与爆破参数的相关关系,采用线性回归法拟合出包含上述因素的经验公式。采用数值模拟手段,模拟爆破条件下地表及临近建筑物的振动的响应,并将模拟结果与实测数据进行对比,研究主要结论如下:(1)最大振速随比例距离基本呈指数的形式衰减,随着比例距离的增加,最大振速值逐渐减小; (2)爆破引起的振动主频随比例距离分布较为随机,无法建立两者之间的数学模型,主频多在20～70Hz范围内; (3)建筑物内部中三矢量方向上的最大振速均随着楼层的增高呈一定的增加趋势,建筑物外部的地表振速要大于内部质点的速度。     

深部岩体地应力瞬态卸载诱发振动效应的影响因素

针对深埋隧洞爆破开挖振动控制,以瀑布沟水电站2#引水隧洞爆破开挖为工程背景,讨论了地应力瞬态卸荷诱发振动特征及影响因素,并结合实测数据采用数值模拟的方法进行了验证分析。研究发现：中、高地应力条件下开挖面初始应力的瞬间释放诱发的振动是爆破开挖诱发振动的重要组成部分;当波阻抗一定时,开挖面初始应力动态卸荷诱发振动由地应力水平、开挖面初始应力、开挖面面积和振动衰减指数共同决定,动态卸荷诱发振动最强段发生在开挖面的初始应力和开挖面面积综合效应最大的位置;深埋隧洞爆破开挖振动的强度是由爆炸荷载和开挖面初始应力动态卸荷效应共同决定的,减小炮孔排距和进尺、采用较小洞径和分部开挖能有效降低地应力瞬态卸荷效应强度,控制深埋隧洞的爆破振动强度。
