The rock slope is more than 90%in the slope of HuangTa(Tao)highway,stability better and bare rock slopes are mass. A majority lithology of slope is slate,sandstone and granite.

The result of slate theory and elastic-plastic mechanics theory analysis and computer stimulation of multi-medium three dimension boundary element is alike. So two pillars is blasted once at a time, and reasonable blasting parameter is determined.
利用托板理論、彈塑性力學中的薄板彎曲小撓度理論編制的計算程序計算的爆破礦柱后頂板懸露面積的臨界值，與應用多介質三維邊界元數值模擬系統(tǒng)模擬的結果基本一致，由此確定一次爆破兩個礦柱，并同時確定了合理的爆破參數，即炮眼等的合理布置。
