Determination of K and β during controlled blasting for Karsctic Limestone Rocks at Klang Valley

Ground vibration induced during controlled blasting activity is one of the big concerns especially in highly populated area. Hence, vibration control study plays a vital role in order to reduce the effect to the surrounding. This study involves collection of blasting data from Karstic Limestone form...
