Description
Summary:This article introduces a technology of integrated presplitting blasting, which can be applied to a new nonpillar coal mining method (i.e., Gob-side Entry Retaining by Roof Cutting (GERRC)) under the condition of thick and hard roofs. First, the new nonpillar coal mining method emerging in China is explained. Then, the concept of integrated presplitting blasting was put forward, and the mechanism of the technology was explained by the method of numerical simulation. Through a mining case with a thick hard limestone roof, the relevant design of nonpillar mining and the design parameters of integrated presplitting blasting are explained in detail. After field practice verification, from the construction process and test results, as well as combined with underground pressure observation and analysis, it shows that technology and design are reasonable. This research supplements the mining technology system of coal mining engineering and the proposed technologies and methods have strong applicability, especially for related coal mines nonpillar mining and safe and efficient mining.
