A Case Study on Strong Strata Behaviors Mechanism of Mining Reserved Roadway and Its Prevention Techniques

Abstract

The underground roadway of the Buertai Coal Mine adopts the double-roadway layout. Double-roadway layout mode has a roadway that is affected by repeated mining, called reserved roadways. The reserved roadway is strongly affected by mining, and the strata behaviors appear violently. This paper studies the strata behaviors that occur in auxiliary haulage roadway (AHR) during the mining of panel 42106. By analyzing geological conditions, mining influencing factors, and roadway layout, the mechanism of strong rock behavior has been clarified. Then, based on the theoretical analysis, we put forward the treatment method for the manifestation of strong strata behaviors by using hydraulic fracturing technology to break the key stratum. In this way, the high stress of the surrounding rock can be reduced by forcing the hard roof to be broken. After the application of hydraulic fracturing technology, we monitored the deformation of roadways and the periodic weighting law of the working face. The strength of strata behaviors has significantly weakened, and the application of this technology ensures the safe production of coal mines.
