Abstract

Case histories are introduced to illustrate how an understanding of the mechanics of deformation of mine structures associated with longwall layouts can be used to improve stability. Particular examples include: (a) deformations associated with longwall caving, (b) the effect of support pressure on roof deformation above a longwall face, (c) the effect of pack design on longwall access road closure, (d) the effect of rock deformation characteristics on floor heave.
