Zheng, Z.Xu, Y.Dong, J.Zong, Q.Wang, L.2025-12-172025-12-172015Journal of Vibroengineering, 2015; 17(3):1105-11191392-8716https://hdl.handle.net/11541.2/111651Using the traditional cutting blasting technology in vertical shaft construction has some features, e.g. slows driving speed, gangue with large volume and throwing high. Moreover, large explosive charge initiation has a serious influence on freezing pipes and freezing wall. In this study, the periphery hole charge and charge structure was optimized, and the blasting model of the bedrock vertical shaft section was established by using the ANSYS/LS-DYNA numerical simulation software. In addition, stress concentration of the large diameter empty hole and its influence of blasting efficiency in blasting were analyzed. The field experiment was conducted to verify the blasting results. The results show that using large diameter empty hole blasting technology in vertical shaft construction of frozen hard rock section can significantly improve the speed of vertical shaft construction, obtain the excellent blasting effect and guarantee the safety of freezing pipes and freezing wall.enCopyright 2015 JVE InternationalJournal article000354607100005
