1/1/2011 - Peer reviewed journal articlesStone mines in the eastern and midwestern United States use the room-and-pillar method of mining to extract relatively flat-laying sedimentary formations. A survey of pillar performance was carried out to identify potential modes of instability.
-
7/1/2010 - Conference papersIn this paper, the findings of a survey of roof span stability issues and design practices are presented, and the observed factors contributing to roof instability are discussed.
-
2/1/2005 - Conference papersHighwall stability remains a major concern during highwall mining. Geologic structure (hillseams) and pillar stability are the two major factors affecting highwall stability.
-
6/1/2004 - Conference papersThe point estimation method for the probability of sliding is efficient and expedites slope stability simulation routines in NIOSH software to stochastically describe rock slope behavior and assist engineers in catch bench design for large slopes.
-
8/1/2001 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThe CMRR quantifies defects in the rock mass and compiles a strength value used for engineering design. The CMRR has been applied to a number of ground stability problems. The CMRR procedure and some of these applications are described in this paper.
