Landslides and slope erosion pose serious challenges in infrastructure development and construction projects. Therefore, advanced technology is required to strengthen and maintain slope stability. In August 2013 in Barrio El Codito in Colombia, there were problems with the slopes so that slope protection and stabilization were required. The slope had previously experienced surface erosion caused by weathering…
Mining blasting can cause rock shattering and generate seismic waves of energy that travel through the earth, causing vibrations in the surrounding rock mass or material. The level of blasting vibrations varies depending on the hardness of the rock. The vibrations from the explosion must be within safe limits for the surrounding environment. This means…
