Abstract
A computer program called Seiswise that predicts the character and intensity of ground vibration generated by surface blasting operations was developed and field tested. The program uses the time histories of one or more pilot shots in combination with various initiation sequences to construct synthetic seismograms which are examined to select designs that will produce low levels of ground vibration.
