Description
Summary:This study takes three roadways with similar burial depths in different strata in Xieqiao Mine of Huainan as its research object. This study involves the observation and analysis of borehole stress gauge data under the influence of mining pressure. The observation data show that: (1) under the influence of mining, the high-wall vertical stress increases as the distance from the roadway surface increases, and the peak point is at 6 m. The increment value of vertical stress at the low side has a maximum value at 8 m and a peak value at 14 m. The increase value of horizontal stress of the high side has two peaks, which are 4 m and 6 m, respectively. The increment of horizontal stress in low walls is also about 8 m. (2) The mining influence range of working face mining is about 150 m. Mining influence distance can be divided into three stages: 0–25 m, 25–60 m, and beyond 60 m. The increase of vertical and horizontal stress caused by mining increases sharply within 25 m from the working face. (3) The buried depth of the roadway has an influence on the range of mining influence and the increase of mining stress caused by working face mining. The more the buried depth of the roadway increases, the greater the range of mining influence and the increased value of mining stress. (4) After roadway excavation, the surface deformation of roadway surrounding rock reduces the increase of mining stress near the roadway surface. The mutual verification between the analysis results and theoretical calculation results is helpful to roadway support design and advanced support design of the working face.
