    Appendix C: Practical Exercise and Solutions (Continued)

    Lesson Title: Calculate Explosive Requirements for Road Craters.

    Problem #1 - Hasty Road Crater

    1. Critical Dimensions. Hasty road crater, Road is 66 feet wide, Boreholes (minimum depth of 5 feet).Use 40 lbs cratering charges and TNT

    2. Calculate for TNT. Rule of thumb: Place 10 lbs of explosive per foot of depth in each boreholeBorehole depth = 5 feet 5 x 10 lbs = 50 lbs of TNT

    3. Divide by RE Factor. Not applicable.

    4. Round up. Use one 40-lb cratering charge and 10 lbs of TNT to equal 50 lbs of explosive per hole

    5. Calculate number of charges. Use formula: N = L - 16 + 15

    N = L - 16 + 1 = 66 - 16 + 1 = 50 + 1 = 10 + 1 = 11 boreholes=11charges5 5 5

    6. Calculate total amount of explosive. Boreholes are 5 feet deep.ANSWER: One 40-lb cratering charge and 10 lbs of TNT per borehole = 5 boreholes,

    11 40-lb cratering charges and 110 lbs of TNT.

    Problem #2 - Deliberate Road Crater

    1. Critical Dimensions. Deliberate road crater Road is 41 feet wide Use 40 lbs cratering charges andTNT

    2. Calculate for TNT. (First, determine number of boreholes)Use formula: N = L - 16 + 1

    5N = L - 16 + 1 = 41 - 16 + 1 = 25 + 1 = 5 + 1 = 6 boreholes

    5 5 5

    3. Divide by RE factor. Not applicable

    4. Round up. Rule-of-thumb: 5-foot holes require 40 lbs of explosive;7-foot holes require 80 lbs of explosive

    5. Calculate number of charges. Number of holes = number of charges = 6FOUR 7-foot boreholes; TWO 5-foot boreholes

    6. Calculate total amount of explosive:2 cratering charges per 7-foot hole = 8 cratering charges1 cratering charge per 5-foot hole = 2 cratering charges1-pound block of TNT per 5-foot hole = 2 1-lb blocks of TNT

    ANSWER: TEN 40-lb cratering charges and TWO 1-lb blocks of TNT

    Problem #3 - Relieved-Face Road Crater

    1. Critical Dimensions: Relieved-face road crater Road is 73 feet wide Use 1-lb packages of TNT

    2. Calculate for TNT: (First determine the location and number of boreholes)Friendly side boreholes: N = L - 10 + 1

    7

    N = L - 10 + 1 = 73 - 10 + 1 = 63 + 1 = 9 + 1 = 10 boreholes7 7 7

    Enemy side boreholes: N = Number friendly - 1N = Number friendly - 1 = 10 - 1 = 9 boreholes

    Boreholes on enemy side require 30 lbs explosive; boreholes on friendly side require 40 lbs explosive9 enemy side boreholes x 30 lbs = 270 lbs of TNT

    10 friendly side boreholes x 40 lbs = 400 lbs of TNT

    3. Divide by RE factor. Not applicable

    4. Round up. Not applicable

    5. Calculate number of charges. Number of charges = number of boreholesFriendly side has 10 chargesEnemy side has 9 charges

    6. Calculate total amount of explosive.Friendly side = 10 charges = 400 lbs of TNTEnemy side = 9 charges = 270 lbs of TNT

    ANSWER: 400 lbs + 270 lbs = 670 1-lb packages of TNT

    Problem #4 - Hasty Road Crater

    1. Critical Dimensions. Hasty road crater Road is 45 feet wide Boreholes (minimum of 5 feet deep)Use 40 lbs cratering charges and TNT

    2. Calculate for TNT. Rule-of-thumb: Place 10 lbs of explosive per foot of depth in each boreholeBorehole depth = 5 feet 5 x 10 lbs = 50 lbs of TNT

    3. Divide by RE factor. Not applicable

    4. Round up. Use one 40-lb cratering charge and 10 lbs of TNT to equal 50 lbs of explosive per hole

    5. Calculate number of charges. Use formula: N = L - 16 + 15

    N = L - 15 + 1 = 45 - 16 + 1 = 29 + 1 = 5.8(round up)= 6 + 1 = 7 boreholes5 5 5

    6. Calculate total amount of explosive. Boreholes are 5 feet deep.ANSWER: One 40-lb cratering charge and 10 lbs of TNT per borehole =

    7 boreholes; 7 40-lb cratering charges and 70 lb of TNT.

    Lesson Title: Calculate Explosive Requirements for Road Craters.

    Problem #5 - Deliberate Road Crater - Solution

    1. Critical Dimensions. Deliberate road crater Road is 84 feet wide Use 40 lbs cratering charge and TNT

    2. Calculate for TNT. (First, determine number of boreholes) Use formula: N = L - 16 + 15

    3. Divide by RE factor. Not applicable

    4. Round up. Rule-of-thumb: 5-foot holes require 40 lbs of explosive;7-foot holes require 80 lbs of explosive

    5. Calculate number of charges. Number of holes = number of charges = 15.EIGHT 7-foot boreholes; SEVEN 5-foot boreholes.

    6. Calculate total amount of explosives.2 cratering charges per 7-foot hole = 16 cratering charges1 cratering charge per 5-foot hole = 7 cratering charges1-pound block TNT per 5-foot hole = 7 1-lb blocks of TNT

    ANSWER: 23 40-lb cratering charges and 7 1-lb blocks of TNT

    Problem #6 - Relieved-Face Road Crater - Solution

    1. Critical Dimensions. Relieved-face road crater Road is 86 feet wide Use 1-lb packages of TNT

    2. Calculate for TNT. (First, determine the location and the number of boreholes)Friendly side boreholes: N = L - 10 + 1

    7N = L - 10 + 1 = 86 - 10 + 1 = 76 + 1 = 10.8 (round up) = 11 + 1= 12

    7 7 7Enemy side boreholes: N = Number friendly - 1 12 - 1 = 11 boreholesBoreholes on enemy side require 30 lbs of explosive

    Boreholes on friendly side require 40 lbs of explosive11 enemy side boreholes x 30 lbs = 330 lbs of TNT12 friendly side boreholes x 40 lbs = 480 lbs of TNT

    3. Divide by RE factor. Not applicable

    4. Round up. Not applicable

    5. Calculate number of charges. Number of charges = number of boreholesFriendly side has 12 chargesEnemy side has 11 charges

    6. Calculate total amount of explosive.Friendly side = 12 charges = 480 lbs of TNT

    Enemy side - 11 charges = 330 lbs of TNTANSWER: 480 lbs = 330 lbs = 810 1-lb packages of TNT
