This study aims to investigate the fracturing characteristics of double-hole blasting under the action of coupled static stress and delayed time explosion. A total of thirteen explosive tests were carried out on rectangular concrete blocks with different constraints. The test blocks were wrapped in steel mesh in the test bed to prevent flying away of the cracked blocks after blasting. After blasting, the surface area of the crater was measured, and all pieces of the cracked blocks were collected, screened, and analyzed. The experimental results show that (1) the shape of free-surface craters was affected by static stress. The surface area and overall volume of the craters increased in the direction of loading stress. (2) The crater under simultaneous initiation was larger than that under delayed initiation when the tested block had a single free surface. (3) The fragmentation of blasting is closely related to the static confining pressure and delay initiation applied on the tested specimens. It is believed that this research will contribute to the design of multi-hole blasting in the deep geological body in the respect of the theoretical analysis.
