Surrounding rock control technology of large-section open-off cut with composite roof under deep mining conditions: a case study by Shengji Xu, Shengji Xu, Qingcong Zhou, Kangjie Wang

“…Key findings include: 1) The composite roof exhibits weak interlayer bonding and undergoes progressive bending-delamination-fracture failure under stress, requiring a high-strength coupled support system. 2) Based on pressure arch theory, we evaluate the damage range of surrounding rock in the open-off cut and derive optimal bolt and anchor cable support parameters. 3) FLAC3D simulations demonstrate significant positive correlations between stress concentration coefficient, displacement, plastic zone height, and open-off cut span. …”
