At Splitrock, we concentrate on three types of blasting:
- Close proximity blasting; Chemical and conventional
- Mass and bulk blasting; using explosives
- Specialized blasting and removing of rock
Because of our expertise with explosives, we are authorized to use them within 500m of any structure, be it a built-up area, overhead power cable, or underground pipeline. As a result, we regularly blast swimming pools little more than a meter from existing homes, open trenches alongside oil pipelines, and demolish factory floors without loss of factory production.
Mass blasting is the service that has proved so useful to road builders carving through hillsides, to engineers who need to displace mud under sand fills, and for shattering rock under roadworks for no-fines drains.
Specialized blasting embraces the jobs which call for the demolition of industrial chimneys,
