Some Problems on Quarrying Rock Material of Rock Fill Dam with Concrete Facing by Blasting

The blasting quarrying technology of rock material of rock-fill dam is one of the more complex problems in the field of engineering blasting at present. The Kuz-Ram model is not suited to predict fragmentation distribution under the geology condition of Tianshengqiao(TSQ) fist-step power station. The modification of kuz-Ram model is discussed. With reference to the idea of model establishment of Kuz-Ram model and according to the results of experimental blasting in-situ, two fragmentation prediction models-TSQ-1 and TSQ-2 model are presented which are adapted to the particular condition of rock material querying blasting of rock-fill dam with concrete facing of TSQ first-step power station. The rapid judgment method of qualified grade material and the method of optimizing blasting parameters are also presented in this paper.
