Analysis and Application of the Mechanical Properties of the Karst Collapse Column Fillings by Zhibin Lin, Boyang Zhang, Xiaofei Gong, Limin Sun, Wenzhen Wang, Dafang Yang, Yanlin Yang, Ming Guo, Xia-Hui Pan

“…The larger the consolidation pressure or the smaller the moisture content, the larger the ratio. (2) With the increase of consolidation pressure or the decrease of moisture content, the uniaxial compressive strength, elastic modulus, splitting tensile strength, cohesive stress, and internal friction angle of the filling material of the KCC increase linearly, while its permeability increases exponentially. (3) When the crack field of the surrounding rocks of the stope is connected with the KCC, its filling material will continue to yield, activate, and migrate under the fluid-solid coupling effect and finally result in the lagging water inrush from the KCC.…”
