Of forming loads on the mounting of shaft shafts in the hierarchic block environment under the influence of modern geodynamic movements

Abstract

The subject of the research is the lining of mine shafts and surrounding rock mass. The subject matter is the features of the stress-strain behavior of lining and adjacent rock mass in shafts and near-shaft underground openings in the Tenth Anniversary of Independence of Kazakhstan mine located in the tectonically high-stress and low-strength rock mass. The loading of the lining in the shafts and near-shaft openings in the Tenth Anniversary of Independence of Kazakhstan mine during construction is investigated, and the damages of the lining in the course of drivage in the nonuniform stress field are analyzed. The long-term periodic in-situ instrumental monitoring of stress variation in the lining of the mine shafts and near-shaft openings revealed the main influences on the process of load formation on the lining in the conditions of post-limiting deformation of surrounding rock mass. It is validated that the surrounding rock mass of the mine has a complex hierarchical block structure and is subjected to modern geodynamic movements. As the depth of mining is increased, surrounding rock mass of the mine shafts transfers to the condition of postlimiting stresses and strains. As a consequence, the lining of the shafts and near-shaft openings at different stages of construction experiences nonuniform concentrated loads, which violates integrity of the lining.
