To achieve these objectives, a standard charge is used that is capable of developing deto-nation pressure equal to 1 kg of 11 SPECIALIZEDBLASTINGTECHNIQUES 168 There are several types of explosives that can develop the appropriate detonation pressure. By knowingthe detonation velocity and the density of a given explosive, the detonation pressure can be calculated (Chapter2 - Explosives).
and handled according to strict codes (see Chapter 3 - Storage). Because of regulations dealing with explo-sives security, storage is expensive. Where there is a limited need for explosives, avalanche workers may wish to avoid the more expensive storage requirements by using a two-component system. Stored separately, the
