Diameter of Explosive using Burden Suggested in Konya Formula Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Diameter of Explosive = (Burden/3.15)*(Specific Gravity of Rock/Specific Gravity of Explosive)^(1/3)
D_e = (B/3.15)*(SG_r/SG_e)^(1/3)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Diameter of Explosive - (Measured in Inch) - Diameter of Explosive is any straight-line segment that passes through the center of the explosive.
Burden - (Measured in Inch) - Burden is the distance from the blast hole to the nearest perpendicular free face.
Specific Gravity of Rock - Specific Gravity of Rock is the ratio of density of rock to density of reference substance.
Specific Gravity of Explosive - Specific Gravity of Explosive is the ratio of density of explosive to density of reference substance.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Burden: 14 Foot --> 168 Inch (Check conversion here)
Specific Gravity of Rock: 2.3 --> No Conversion Required
Specific Gravity of Explosive: 1.9 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

D_e = (B/3.15)*(SG_r/SG_e)^(1/3) --> (168/3.15)*(2.3/1.9)^(1/3)

Evaluating ... ...

D_e = 56.8403582214576

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.4437450988308 Meter -->56.8403582214576 Inch (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

56.8403582214576 ≈ 56.84036 Inch <-- Diameter of Explosive

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

< Vibration Control in Blasting Calculators

Velocity of Particle One at Distance from Explosion

Go Velocity of Particle with Mass m1 = Velocity of Particle with Mass m2*(Distance of Particle 2 from Explosion/Distance of Particle 1 from Explosion)^(1.5)

Velocity of Particles disturbed by Vibrations

Go Velocity of Particle = (2*pi*Frequency of Vibration*Amplitude of Vibration)

Wavelength of Vibrations caused by Blasting

Go Wavelength of Vibration = (Velocity of Vibration/Frequency of Vibration)

Velocity of Vibrations caused by Blasting

Go Velocity of Vibration = (Wavelength of Vibration*Frequency of Vibration)
