Buffer Blasting. Buffer blasting is possibly the most simple method of control blasting and involves a modification to the last row of the main blast pattern. Modifications are limited to reduced burden, spacing, and explosive loads. The aim is to limit ground shock from the blast. The method is usually employed in conjunction with some other control blasting technique, such as pre-splitting, and its results are quite economical. Buffer blasting can only be used by itself when the ground is fairly competent. It may produce minor crest fracturing or backbreak but the amount of damage is less than would be produced by the main production blast if no control blasting was used at all. 2, record 1, English, - buffer%20blasting

Dynamitage contrôlé. Le dynamitage contrôlé est une méthode spécialisée qui vise à minimiser les effets indésirables du dynamitage, tels que les vibrations du sol, la surpression de l'air et les projections de pierres. Les techniques incluses dans le dynamitage contrôlé sont le forage en ligne, le dynamitage en douceur(contour ou périmètre), le pré-fendage, le dynamitage tampon et le post dynamitage. Le dynamitage contrôlé est particulièrement utile dans les zones peuplées ou sensibles où les dommages aux structures environnantes et à la sécurité des personnes doivent être soigneusement gérés. 1, record 1, French, - dynamitage%20tampon

There are six controlled blasting techniques that have been developed and designed to improve the stability of the final excavation. Each one of these has their unique features and design considerations for successful implementation into any blasting plan. The six controlled blasting techniques that will be discussed are (1) line drilling, (2) trim blasting, (3) buffer blasting, (4) smooth wall blasting, (5) air decking, and (6) presplitting. 4, record 2, English, - controlled%20blasting%20technique

Mesures d’atténuation. Bien que le projet Midwest se trouve dans une zone sismique stable, les structures et les pentes ont été conçues afin d’assurer une protection contre les événements sismiques. Des techniques de dynamitage contrôlé seront employées pour assurer la stabilité des mines à ciel ouvert et maintenir l'intégrité des parois. Des bermes de sécurité seront construites pour délimiter des plateaux de rétention, afin de retenir des matériaux pouvant tomber dans toutes les fosses actives. Les pentes des fosses actives seront surveillées afin d’en assurer la stabilité aux endroits susceptibles de connaître des glissements de pente ou des ruptures de versant. 1, record 2, French, - technique%20de%20dynamitage%20contr%C3%B4l%C3%A9

Drilling and Blasting for Slope Stabilization and Geotechnical Investigations. Trim blasting is used for controlled blasts in which explosive charges are placed in predetermined pattern of holes drilled into the rock face and then detonated. Potentially unstable masses of rock can sometimes be stabilized using rock bolts and long steel rods drilled into the rock to bind it together. Drilling is a common method of investigation to obtain geotechnical reports required for engineering design. 1, record 3, English, - trim%20blasting

Forage et dynamitage pour la consolidation des talus et études géotechniques. Le dynamitage de découpage est utilisé pour le dynamitage contrôlé dans lequel les charges explosives sont placées dans une combinaison prédéterminée de trous percés dans la paroi rocheuse avant la détonation. Les masses rocheuses potentiellement instables peuvent parfois être stabilisées au moyen de boulons d’ancrage et de longues tiges d’acier enfoncées dans les roches pour les lier ensemble. Le forage est une méthode commune d’exploration pour obtenir les rapports géotechniques requis aux fins de la conception technique. 1, record 3, French, - dynamitage%20de%20d%C3%A9coupage
