The article summarizes experimental seismological measurements of vibration effects of blasting operations. During tunnel excavation can watch a variety of effects on the near or distant surroundings of the building. One of the most discussed are the effects of vibration, while the most important vibrations are caused when part of the excavation technology also use blasting. In this paper, we focus on the design summary of results from experimental seismological measurements, and the values of the maximum amplitude of vibration, which are measured at small distances from the source of vibration. For comparison also gives the results of experimental measurements of vibration induced at larger distances, or quarries.
