Blast-induced ground vibration is one of the most important environmental impacts of blasting operations because it may cause severe damage to structures and plants in nearby environment. Estimation of ground vibration levels induced by blasting has vital importance for restricting the environmental effects of blasting operations. This study is aimed to compare the ground vibrations predicted from empirical formula and analytical program with the real data. Several predictor equations have been proposed by various researchers to predict ground vibration prior to blasting, but these are site...
