Explosive Quantity Per Blast Calculator

Retrospective audited site blast event mass ledger total already recorded per hole consumptions, no calculate/set explosive quantities from hole geometry, rock volume or powder factor; no instructions or safety approval.

Description

A retrospective blast-event ledger can total already reconciled per-hole consumption records.

A retrospective blast-event ledger can total already reconciled per-hole consumption records.^[1]

This tool sums supplied nonnegative masses without determining explosive quantities for a future event.

When to use Explosive Quantity Per Blast Calculator

This tool sums supplied nonnegative masses without determining explosive quantities for a future event.

How to use Explosive Quantity Per Blast Calculator and how it works

Prepare retrospectively reconciled per hole consumption kg, using the input definitions and matching units below.
Enter the required fields and run Explosive Quantity Per Blast Calculator.
Read result.value using the units, signs and ordering explained below.
Correct any rejected inputs and rerun; interpret the result within the stated model and its assumptions.

Input field	Meaning	Value type	Requirement
actualRetrospectivelyReconciledPerHoleConsumptionKg	Actual Retrospectively Reconciled Per Hole Consumption Kg. Use the units and matching context stated in the calculation below.	array of number	Required; other constraints below

Require a nonempty list of nonnegative retrospectively reconciled per-hole consumption values in kg. Sum them and return recorded event consumption in kg. Negative per-hole discrepancies must be resolved separately before this total accepts the records; no geometry or prospective loading calculation occurs.

recordedEventConsumptionKg=sum(reconciledPerHoleKg)

Apply the input ordering, units and branch conditions stated above.

Output field	Meaning	Value type
result	Object containing the calculated or selected fields below.	object
result.value	Retrospective reconciled event consumption in kg.	number

Limitations and assumptions

The calculation uses the supplied observations and model inputs. It does not collect measurements, select a reference population or coefficient, or establish that the model applies to the actual case. The stated branch conditions and output units remain part of the result.

All fields require explicit values. Unexpected fields, wrong types, nonfinite numbers and sparse arrays are rejected. Alignment, bounds and supported-token rules are explained above; extremely large inputs or nonfinite results can also fail. Input errors differ from successful false comparisons, unavailable-domain flags and empty match lists.

Alternative or Complementary methods

Use Explosive Quantity Per Hole Calculator for a complementary operation: A retrospective per-hole material ledger compares inventories and separately recorded returned material.

Use Blast Powder Factor Calculator for a complementary operation: A retrospective powder factor compares recorded consumed mass with independently surveyed broken-rock volume.
