A survey for understanding the opinion about the safety and economy of different types of detonators used in domestic tunnel construction was carried out for total 345 people in related areas. From the result, it was found that 86.7% of the surveyed people felt non-electric detonator was safe. From the experimental points that the cost of detonators is in charge of 8.1% in overall tunnel blasting cost, and the utilization of non-electric detonators will also contribute to the prevention of blasting accidents by the electrical safety, this study can help providing opinions and basic data collected from related areas to manufacturing companies, police department, and companies ordering tunnel construction.
