A mechanistic evaluation and design of tunnel support systems for deep level South African mines.
The design of support systems, comprising rock bolt reinforcement and fabric containment components for tunnels in deep level mining environments does not currently cater well for adverse rock mass conditions. This often results in periodic failure of the support system, particularly under dynamic (...
