DGMS Mailing List: Re: Specification of blaster's shelter.

This is in addition to the earlier reply reg. specification of blaster's shelter,

Ref. DGMS Cir.Tech. 8/1982

it may appear that there is a case for revising the limit of danger zone from 300m to at least 500m and for prescribing that all those who must remain within the danger zone at the time of blasting, should take shelter in "substantially built" shelters. since it is difficult to define a 'substantially built shelter' which could be considered adequate for different types of blasting parameters, it would appear necessary that when the entire area of danger zone and a distance of at least 200m beyond cannot be got vacated, the shots should be fired by controlled blasting technique.

Thank you
