Abstract

There has been a significant development in the evaluation of methods to predict ground movement due to underground extraction based on geographical information systems (GIS). In order to make the calculation of the backfill volume of road collapse more convenient, the calculating methods of backfill volumes of straight road collapse and bent road collapse due to mining subsidence are derived based on GIS in this paper. To ensure the calculation accuracy of backfill volume, the interpolation method is used for the calculation of backfill volumes of road collapse in mining subsidence. Calculation procedure: Firstly, the area of arbitrary cross-section of road is calculated by geometric method. Further, the backfill volume of road collapse between the two adjacent cross-sections is the product of the area of cross- section and the calculating step. The total backfill volume of road collapse is calculated by the sum of the backfill volume of road collapse between multiple adjacent cross-sections. Then, the calculating methods are embedded in the GIS platform for calculation. The backfill volume of the railway collapse after the 1–12# mining face is 58,113.25 m3.
