Research Anti-Impact Mechanism of Roof Presplitting Blasting in Deep Composite Thick and Hard Key Strata by Xiaoqi Hao, Gang Han, Hu Liu, Jiahao Xie, Yawu Shao, Yin Zhang, Jinglong Cao, Qian Zhao

“…The results show that (1) in view of the characteristics of “difficult to collapse and strong energy storage” of composite thick and hard key strata in a deep stope, the targeted low-high combined blasting measures can realize the transformation of overburden structure from “F” type to “Γ” type, effectively shorten the exposed length of key strata, reduce the in-plane static load stress, weaken the dynamic load strength, and reduce the impact risk. (2) After adopting the low-high combined blasting measures, the maximum vertical stress reduction on both sides and above the goaf is 70% and 90%, respectively, and the energy release is up to 106 J, which greatly reduced the stress concentration inside the coal body and weakened the energy intensity when the overlying strata structure in the goaf was broken. (3) The total energy and frequency of microseismic events during the mining period, as well as the pressure strength and pressure step of the support, were significantly reduced. …”
