Frequently asked questions
Why is it important to monitor vibration?
It is often required as part of planning permissions. It can also offer a wealth of information on the effectiveness of the blast design.
What type of vibration monitoring equipment is best for quarrying?
The standard approach to monitoring utilises geophone based seismographs. It is important to select an instrument the covers the range of capabilities for the application. These include air over pressure and duration of recording.
Which organisation is regarded as the lead intelligence on blasting induced vibration?
The ISEE (International Society of Explosives Engineers) has a dedicated seismograph section.
Vibraquipo vibration meters are also manufactured according to DIN 48669.
Is there a global standard on vibration measurement for blasting?
The ISEE (International Society of Explosives Engineers) provides the ISEE Field Practice Guidelines for Blasting Seismographs which details internationally accepted practice.
