Underground Design

An add-on for Maptek Vulcan

Underground Design add-on includes underground design and underground drill and blast design tools.

This add-on allows users to create detailed mining shapes for cut and fill, sub-level stoping, and room pillar mining methods. Engineers can generate development networks to connect these mineable shapes.

An automatic ramp tool facilitates decline design with intermediate access points, while interactive ramp editor allows users to individually modify ramp sections.

Design underground drill and blast plans with both automated and manual ring design tools. Users can communicate plans through generated ring plots with drilling and explosives information.
