Impact of Mining Exploitation on Properties with Engineering Structures by Local Urban Development Plans

Abstract

Discussed is one of the stages of an ongoing research study analysing the form and area of active mining impact on properties which include engineering structures. A general back analysis has been applied to the cause and effect method for defining the causes of empirically determined structural damage. One of the points of the analysis is to determine if the guidelines of The Local Urban Development Plan and then the conditions for building permits have been correctly issued. and whether they have taken into account all the adverse effects that may affect to be analysed engineering structures on the test field. In addition, examined all the documents which have an impact on the structure and the guidelines imposed by the local plans that takes into account the harmful impact of mining exploitation. In this publication was analysis of explores the current assumptions for mining damage forecasts for areas affected by a mine over a planned operation period, all well. Considering that mining forecasts specify the quantity, impact duration, as well as the form of static and dynamic forces responsible for stresses and deformations resulting from active mining, the information is most critical for the construction and industrial sectors. The Local Urban Development Plans for the analysed areas are based on the final information supplied by the forecasts, and show active mining areas clearly outlined; thus making it possible to delineate the active mining impact areas when preparing guidelines for building and structure construction permits. The mining damage area parameters determine the design and construction requirements for individual projects which must comply with engineering structure foundation specification for areas exposed to other than standard and highly damaging active mining impact. Mining forecast data allow for designing adequate structural, material, and geothermal safeguards which will stabilize the soil and reduce forces negatively impacting soil serviceability limit states. Owing to the high number of problems attributable to discrepancies between the mapped mining damage areas, the calculations and assumptions used in mining forecasts, and the actual conditions, this study aims to analyse the problem.
