Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rock Excavation: Methods and Cost The value of the mineral products of America annually exceeds $1,000,000,000. For explosives alone the sum of $20,000,000 is expended each year, and it is well within limits to say that fully twice as great a sum is paid out to drillers and blasters. When we consider the labor, the power and the powder required to mine and to quarry products in the aggregate so enormously valuable, we can not fail to be impressed with the scantiness of literature on the economics of rock excavation. A dozen years ago, when called upon to estimate the cost of some open cut rock excavation, I was astonished to find no text book that in the least served to guide me. I subsequently learned also that most of the matter to be found in the few books on blasting was either theoretic or too meagre to be of material value. What was true then has unfortunately remained true. In the preparation of this volume, it was my original intention to give only condensed cost data on rock excavation - including in that term, quarrying, open cut work, trenching, tunneling, and underground excavation; but, as the writing progressed, it become more and more apparent that methods of doing work and "tricks of the trade" should occupy an important part of the book to make it at all satisfactory. I saw that my object should be not merely to furnish data whereby an inexperienced man might predict the cost of rock work with at least tolerable accuracy, but that it should be my aim also to indicate to the experienced manager how and where savings in the cost of production may be effected. Taking my own notes and records of cost as a basis, I have added so extensively to them by correspondence that the reader will find not a little on costs that has never appeared in print before.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Earth and Rock Excavation: A Practical Treatise There is hardly a class of engineering construction into which excavation of earth or rock does not enter to some extent, and in many engineering works excavation is by far the largest item of labor and expense. Despite these facts English engineering literature is almost barren of books which treat of earth and rock excavation in a concise and comprehensive manner having regard both for the planning and computation of such work and for the methods and machines by which it is accomplished. The present book is an attempt to supply this deficiency and has been written with the following objects chiefly in view: First to con centrate in a small volume descriptions of the different operations which are required for planning and executing any work of exca vation in either earth or rock; second, to classify and describe clearly the various implements and machines used for excavating and hauling away the material. So far as the author knows, there is no book in the English language which covers these fields. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rock Blasting: A Practical Treatise on the Means Employed in Blasting Rocks for Industrial Purposes During the past decade, numerous and great changes have taken place in the system followed and the methods adopted for blasting rocks in industrial operations. The introduction of the machine drill led naturally to these important changes. The system which was suitable to the operations carried on by hand was inefficient under the requirements of machine labour, and the methods which had been adopted as the most appropriate in the former case were found to be more or less unsuitable in the latter. Moreover, the conditions involved in machine boring are such as render necessary stronger explosive agents than the common gunpowder hitherto in use, and a more expeditious and effective means of firing them than that afforded by the ordinary fuse.
