Swedish term

Vid borrning i sprängbotten - sprängbotten

Swedish to English Tech/Engineering Construction / Civil Engineering Blasting
Found "packad språngbotten" in an old Proz question but it was to German.

Vid borrning i sprängbotten och schaktning av sprängmassor ska oskyddad personal uppehålla sig på säkerhetsavstånd från arbetsplatsen.

Drilling at the base of the blast area?

I'll presume you want only a single term sprängbotten (as the rules ask).

Here's some interesting reading.
This uses your term to get an idea of what it involves - with an Eng summary. http://www.diva-portal.org/smash/get/diva2:9620/FULLTEXT01.p...

This (in depth) reading uses my suggestion -- *blast floor*, *design blast floor*, *bench floor*... http://www.google.mg/patents/EP2558814A1?cl=en

This would not be the first time the Swedish TNC go things wrong in English. Why use the Swe designation 'botten' for broken rock formation on walls or ceiling?

Peer comment(s):

disagree Deane Goltermann : Your reference uses only 'packad sprängbotton' indicating a different context. Here, why drill in rockfill, when you are removing it? You have still misunderstood what 'packad' adds to your context!

Vid "borrning i sprängbotten" och vid "schaktning av sprängmassor" beskriver två olika fall varvid "oskyddad personal uppehålla sig på säkerhetsavstånd från arbetsplatsen"; inte en sekvens av handlingar.
