The state of stress in rock around a mine working, with consideration of the tectonic component of the stress

Soviet mining science Aims and scope

Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The nature of the stress distribution round a mine working depends on the existence, magnitude, and orientation of the tectonic stresses.

  2. 2.

    If there is a tectonic stress component in the undisturbed rock, the stresses round a horizontal mine-working depend on the direction of the working.

  3. 3.

    As the depth increases, the stabilities of workings driven in certain directions may remain constant or even rise.
