Book excerpt: Project Pre-Schooner II consisted of a 100-ton chemical explosive detonated in hard, dry rock at a depth of 71 feet. The primary purpose of the project was to increase the knowledge of crater dimensions in hard, dry rock as a function of depth of burst and type of explosive. This report describes the proportioning of a concrete mixture used in stemming the access hole of the shot cavity, the design of the stem configuration, laboratory tests conducted on core samples from the site and on specimens of the concrete mixture required for design of the stem, and placement of the concrete at the job site. Based on observations of the detonation, fractured pieces of the reinforced concrete stem, and the size of the crater, it is believed that the stem acted effectively to stem the detonation.

Book excerpt: NSA is a comprehensive collection of international nuclear science and technology literature for the period 1948 through 1976, pre-dating the prestigious INIS database, which began in 1970. NSA existed as a printed product (Volumes 1-33) initially, created by DOE's predecessor, the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission (AEC). NSA includes citations to scientific and technical reports from the AEC, the U.S. Energy Research and Development Administration and its contractors, plus other agencies and international organizations, universities, and industrial and research organizations. References to books, conference proceedings, papers, patents, dissertations, engineering drawings, and journal articles from worldwide sources are also included. Abstracts and full text are provided if available.

This book was released on 1965 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive geologic and engineering investigation was undertaken on Buckboard Mesa at the four sites selected for Project Pre-Schooner, a series of chemical explosive experiments conducted in dry basalt. This report covers the results of the preshot geologic and engineering investigation. Subsurface conditions were determined from four vertical borings at each site: One centrally located 6-inch-diameter boring to a depth of 80 feet and three satellite NX core holes of variable depths at the ends of 35-foot radials that were spaced 120 degrees apart. The sites are blanketed by a thin soil cover of rather uniform thickness, ranging from 2 to 4 feet at the four sites, overlying a basalt cap approximately 200 feet thick. The uppermost portion of this basalt cap is composed of vesicular basalt 25 to 50 feet thick which grades into underlying dense basalt 100 to 150 feet thick. The basalt is immediately underlain by 0 to 20 feet of ash or cinder beds.
