Limitations and potential design risks when applying empirically derived coal pillar strength equations to real-life mine stability problems
The method of determining coal pillar strength equations from databases of stable and failed case histories is more than 50 years old and has been applied in different countries by different researchers in a range of mining situations. While common wisdom sensibly limits the use of the resultant pil...
