| Summary: | Under high horizontal ground stress, the squeezing failure has been a common failure pattern for deep roadway. And the large deformation of surrounding rock mass around the roadway has also been a major challenge for deep mining practices. This paper describes a case study of the failure mechanisms and stability control technology of deep roadway under high horizontal ground stress in Jinchuan mine in Gansu Province, China. And this paper also aims to propose a kind of support strategy to prevent the plastic slippage around the floor of roadway. This study started with an in situ broken zone measurement programme to determine the depth of broken zone at each part of the roadway. Combined with long bolt and floor beam, an improved support strategy has been proposed. The field test results show that the improved support strategy can successfully solve the problems of side wall collapse and floor heaven. It can significantly restricts rock mass large deformation and avoid frequent repair. Compare to the original support, the improved support strategy can greatly save investment of mines and also has good application value. |
