Ground Motions from and House Response to Underground Aggregate Mining

Description:

A unique judicial opportunity allowed measurement of the response of three cracks in residential structure to blasting for underground aggregate mining. Instrumented cracks were located in the interior basement CMU mortar and upstairs dry wall as well as exterior brick work. The dynamic environment was unusual. Even though the blasting...

Micro-meter Crack Response to Rock Blast Vibrations, Wind Gusts & Weather Effects

Description:

Micro-meter dynamic crack responses in a two story structure to rock blasting- and wind gust- excitation are compared to those induced by long term climatological effects. These measurements substantiate the conservancy of the 12.5 mm/s (0.5 in./s) blasting vibration control to protect residential structures against cracking. The test structure was...
