Evaluation and Improvement of drilling-blasting works in the Mamak District Kıbrıs limestone open pit

In this thesis study, it is aimed to re-evaluate and develop the computer programs of the existing drilling-blasting scheme and quarry slope steps in the raw material site Old Kıbrıs Limestone quarry under the responsibility of Ankara Metropolitan Municipality in Mamak District of Ankara Province. First of all, obtaining Geographical Information System (GIS) data of the ready-made quarry surface and steps of the raw material field, bringing the data into appropriate transformation formats in the program and using the modelling program, the three-dimensional solid model of the quarry field was obtained. Using many blasting approaches used in the literature, using the three-dimensional surface solid model obtained, the "Quarry Definitions" in the "Open Pit Pit Design" menu of the program will be made, the "Blasting" tab applications will be applied to the defined furnaces and the blasting models will be applied through the blasting approaches and comparisons between the different models applied.
