Bolts of an explosive nature are used in heat shields. As a result of their explosion, the sheet separates releasing the satellite. This is an instance where the choice of explosives could make or break a situation. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The role played by explosives in rock blasting, mining, demolition or construction is of grave importance. Different explosives are suited to different activities. A minor error in calculation of impact could lead to a lot of casualties or injury or simply loss of productivity, if the explosive is not assessed carefully. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Explosive charges are placed at strategically important locations. These take into consideration several factors which are planned out carefully by engineers. Selection and handling of explosives should be undertaken with the utmost care.
