Parameters of Scaled Distance (SD) are estimated carefully. For the prediction of PPV, empirical equations are used. The correlation coefficients resulting from these predictors in diverse sites, are different because of varying conditions in the geomechanical and blasting parameters at each site.</span><span dir="RTL" lang="AR-SA">&nbsp;</span><span lang="EN-GB">Therefore, considering several initial&nbsp;blasts&nbsp;and analysing their results, a suitable relationship has been selected for each case study.</span></p> ER -
