As coal mining progresses to greater depths, the rate and severity of coal burst hazards have greatly increased, resulting in significant operational and safety challenges. Appropriate rock support design for coal burst-prone roadways requires the understanding of the mechanical characteristics of the support system under impact …
Also discussed are important aspects of rock reinforcement, both rock bolts and rock anchors (internal support systems), with emphasis on design principles, parameters for design, and methods of installation and testing.
The most important factors affecting rock reinforcement method and design are: Geological factors, such as rock mass structure. Dimensions and geometry of excavated space. ... Screening, which is the installation of wire mesh, is most typically used in underground mining, but also construction sites together with bolting and/or sprayed …

Because rock pillars are permanently abandoned after the extraction of the ore body, reinforcing the rock pillars during or after mining activities is crucial for ensuring safe …
Reinforcement for mine walls and roofs works on a basic principle — to build support systems for mobilizing and conserving inherent strength already energized in …
The term 'support' is used generically to describe natural and artificial systems employed to limit rock mass displacement. However, when considering the mechanics of how these systems actually control and modify rock mass response, it is helpful to distinguish between elements that contribute to 'supporting' the rock mass …
