Preweakening natural rock prior to breaking it by machine is one approach to lower bit wear and maintenance costs Some preweakening methods apply heat directly or indirectly For example flame torch assisted TBMs Lauriello et al 1974; Resource Technology 1984 have been deemed economical in terms of equipment but their feasibility is
The conventional blasting rock excavation method is the main means of rock breakage because of its high productivity and it is relatively inexpensive compared to other methods However it raises safety concerns and can negatively impact the environment The major disturbances that may be induced by this method include flyrock gas emissions and vibrations This review
The rock breaking efficiency of a drilling tool directly affects the production costs and progress of foundation construction It is essential to understand the mechanism of mechanical rock
