Download or read book Pillar and Roof Span Design Guidelines for Underground Stone Mines written by Department of Health and Human Services and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-10 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Underground stone mines in the United States use the room-and-pillar method of mining in generally flat-lying bedded formations. Pillar and roof span stability are two essential prerequisites for safe working conditions in room-and-pillar mines. Unstable pillars can result in rock sloughing from the pillar and can lead to the collapse of the roof if one or more pillars should fail. In addition, the roof span between pillars must be stable to provide safe access to the working areas. Falls of ground from the roof and pillar ribs account for about 15% of all lost working days in underground stone mines [MSHA 2009]. In the past, pillar and roof span dimensions were largely based on experience at nearby mines, developed through trial and error or designed on a case-by-case basis by rock engineering specialists. This document presents the results of research conducted by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) in cooperation with participating underground stone mines to develop generally applicable guidelines for designing stable pillars and roof spans in stone mines.

Book Synopsis Mining Safety and Health Research at NIOSH by : Institute of Medicine
Download or read book Mining Safety and Health Research at NIOSH written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2007-10-14 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. mining sector has the highest fatality rate of any industry in the country. Fortunately, advances made over the past three decades in mining technology, equipment, processes, procedures, and workforce education and training have significantly improved safety and health. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) Mining Safety and Health Research Program (Mining Program) has played a large role in these improvements. An assessment of the relevance and impact of NIOSH Mining Program research by a National Research Council committee reveals that the program makes essential contributions to the enhancement of health and safety in the mining industry. To further increase its effectiveness, the Mining Program should proactively identify workplace hazards and establish more challenging and innovative goals toward hazard reduction. The ability of the program to successfully expand its activities, however, depends on available funding.

Book Synopsis A Review and Evaluation of Pillar Design Criteria for Use in Evaporite Mines by :
Download or read book A Review and Evaluation of Pillar Design Criteria for Use in Evaporite Mines written by and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The literature on pillar design in mining was reviewed to identify methods proposed for use in evaporites that might be adapted for the application. Since the majority of empirical design formulae were developed from observations in coal mines and involve the width and height of the pillar and constants related to the strength of the coal mass, a survey of salt and potash mines was conducted to establish a relevant data base of pillar design and pillar performance. This information, augmented by some case histories from the literature, was used to test the applicability of several of the empirical design methods. Applicable rock mass strength constants were determined for evaporite pillar design using the equations of Holland and Bieniawski, in addition to one new relationship. The Canadian Salt Co. mine at Pugwash, Nova Scotia was used to test the proposed design formula. A series of convergence stations was established in the mine to assess the stability of existing pillars.
