Second National Conference on Ground Control in Mining, October 14 and 15th, 1996, Calcutta, India, organised by Central Mining Research Institute (Council of Scientific & Industrial Research), supported by Directorate General of Mines Safety (Ministry of Labour).
Covering the subject of ground control in mining, this volume looks at such topics as: rock-slab theory of ground pressure in work and practice, the role of in situ-stress in mine planning, and the status of the art of cable bolting.
The basic principles of geomechanical processes occurring in mine workings during the extraction of minerals are discussed in this monograph. Particular attention is paid to the support system, specifically to the various roof-bolt and frame support designs, and also to the mode…
