TimeHEx<br />

to the point of interest divided by the vibration velocity<br />

through the ground to calculate an arrival time for each<br />

deck at the point.<br />

travel time (ms) = distance (m) x 1000 ÷ velocity (m/s)<br />

arrival time (ms) = detonation time (ms) + travel time (ms)<br />

The arrival time is then used instead of the detonation time<br />

to recalculate the bar chart. To select a new point,<br />

[right-click] the button on the tool bar and [click] on a new<br />

point.<br />

Set the wave transmission velocity through the rock, to<br />

calculate the arrival time chart.<br />

Enter the parameters for calculation of blast-induced<br />

ground vibration and airblast using the scaled-distance<br />

formula. The calculation can be performed at a fixed<br />

distance, or relative to a point of interest - either select a<br />

pre-defined point (label) or enter the coordinates.<br />

Display the ground vibration and airblast values for a<br />

selected bar in the chart. [Drag] to move the text to another<br />

location in the chart.<br />

Query the values and data for a bar in the chart, or for a<br />

blast hole in the design view. In the chart, [click] on any<br />

bar to show a text box of the data. The arrow keys can then<br />

be used to move to the next bar, or [click] again to move<br />

the cursor with the mouse.<br />

In the design view, [click] any hole to see all data for the<br />

hole and a schematic display of the decks and downhole<br />
