Causes of falls of roof in South African collieries

Author: Van der Merwe, JN ; Van Vuuren, JJ ; Butcher, R ; Canbulat, I Date: Aug 2001 The main objective of this research was to determine the causes of falls of roof in South African collieries. Sixteen major roof falls were investigated in detail and their causes established. This data was supplemented by mapping a large ... Read more
Coal pillar design procedures

Author: York, G ; Canbulat, I ; Jack, BW Date: Mar 2000 Examination of collapsed pillar cases outside of the empirical limits of Salamon and Munro’s in situ database has highlighted the need for additional parameters to be considered in the design of coal pillars. These include the influence of ... Read more
Develop guidelines for the design of pillar systems for shallow and intermediate depth, tabular, hard rock mines and provide a methodology for assessing hangingwall stability and support requirements for the panels between pillars

Author: York, G ; Canbulat, I ; Kabeya, KK ; Le Bron, K ; Watson, BP ; Williams, SB Date: Dec 1998 The design of hard rock pillars, in shallow to intermediate depth hard rock mines, has been redefined as the determination of the pillar system load bearing capacity. This entails the ability to design each of the components of the pillar ... Read more
Development of a method to estimate coal pillar loading

Author: Roberts, David P ; Van der Merwe, JN ; Canbulat, I ; Sellers, EJ ; Coetzer, S Date: Sep 2002 The primary goal of this project was to determine the accuracy and validity of the Tributary Area Theory (TAT) and to provide better estimates of pillar load using numerical modelling and other tools. Literature review highlighted that previous ... Read more
Rating system for coal mine roofs

Author: Canbulat, I ; Dlokweni, T Date: Sep 2002 It is standard practice in the majority of rock engineering applications to use a rock mass classification method to evaluate the condition of rock, i.e. to quantify, in an objective manner, the characteristics of good or bad roof. These ... Read more
Reassessment of coal pillar design procedure

Author: Madden, BJ ; Canbulat, I ; Jack, BW ; Prohaska, GD Date: Dec 1995 The SIMRAC project COL 021A entitled “a reassessment of coal pillar design procedures” set out to achieve a coal pillar design procedure that takes cognisance of different geological and structural factors as well as the influence of the ...

Review of current design methodologies to improve the safety of roof support systems, particularly in the face area in collieries.

Author: Canbulat, I ; Jack, B Date: May 1999 This research report summarizes an extensive literature survey on roofbolt support design methods used worldwide, and presents the findings of extensive underground roof monitoring conducted in 29 sites at five collieries. An analysis of fall ... Read more
Safe mining face advance and support installation practice in mechanical miner workings under different geotechnical conditions.

Author: Canbulat, I ; Van der Merwe, JN Date: Mar 2000 This research report includes a detailed literature review on acts and procedures in other major coal producing countries, an underground monitoring programme in various mining districts and numerical modelling. The literature review showed ... Read more
