Reinforcement selection for deep and high-stress tunnels at preliminary design stages using ground demand and support capacity approach

Underground mining is going to be deeper gradually because near surface resources are going to be depleted. Therefore, risk of seismic events in underground mines is escalating. Additionally, existence of the large ratio of horizontal to vertical stress, could be a potential reason for high-stress c...
