Introduction
e conditions of hard roofs in my country vary greatly, with thicknesses ranging from tens of meters to hundreds of meters. e reserves of coal resources under the hard roofs account for about one-third of the total reserves. At present, nearly 40% of fully mechanized mining faces belong to hard roofs. In the working face, more than 50% of the mining areas across the country have problems with the mining of hard roof working faces. is has a serious impact on the load-bearing stability of the fully mechanized support, and it is urgent to solve the problem of strong underground pressure dynamic disaster under the condition of hard roof. e safe bearing of fully mechanized mining support is extremely important for the safe and efficient mining of coal face. e working state of support is required to adapt to the coal rock bearing structure of coal face for ensuring the safety and stability of support bearing. erefore, conducting in-depth analysis on the bearing stability of fully mechanized mining support under strong mining pressure of the hard roof is necessary [1][2][3][4][5].
At present, many scholars consider the roof surrounding rock and the support as a whole to conduct research. e mechanical effects of different deflection changes on the support during the rotation of the roof are different, and many fruitful results have been achieved in reasonably determining the working resistance of the stope hydraulic support. Wang et al. [6] investigated the roof structure characteristics and reasonable bearing capacity of supports in fully mechanized face with large mining height by combining theoretical analysis with field measurement. ey proposed the concept and discrimination method of direct roof key layer. Wang et al. [7] took the 31402 working face of the Ulan Mulun coal mine as the engineering background. ey studied the four failure modes of the coal seam under different stress environments and obtained the vertical deformation of the coal wall and the effect on the coal wall on the basis of the principle of minimum potential energy. e actual roof load and physical simulation experiment of coal wall stability analysis under different support rigidity conditions are designed, and the simultaneous monitoring of coal wall horizontal and vertical deformation is realized. Wang et al. [8] used theoretical analysis and numerical simulation methods to study the determination of the reasonable working resistance of the super large mining height hydraulic support for the occurrence conditions of hard and thick coal seams in Jinjitan Coal Mine. ey concluded the occurrence of the control of the coal slab sliding instability, which is the crucial protection force of hydraulic support. Pang et al. [9] explored the influence of roof failure and coal wall slabs on the stress path by analyzing the relationship between the supporting force and the protective force.
is process is performed to control the longwall mining surrounding rock with large mining heights combined with the coal seam conditions of Jinjitan Coal Mine. ey proposed a two-factor control method for calculating the working resistance of a hydraulic support. Bai et al. [10] used the analysis of coal wall stability in the 14101 fully mechanized caving face of Majialiang Coal Mine as the background. ey conducted theoretical analysis to study the influence of support resistance, coal wall protection pressure, main roof fracture position, and mining height on coal wall deformation. With the increase in supporting resistance, the rotation angle of the main roof decreases linearly. With the increase in the supporting resistance and protective force provided by the protective surface, the maximum deformation of the coal wall decreases linearly. Das [11] took the Indian geological longwall face engineering as the background to analyze the geological, physical, and mechanical rock characteristics and the characteristics of the roof rock of the coal measure during mining. is study highlights the characteristics of rock fragmentation and caving to contribute to the development of roof rock classification system. Lou et al. [12] verified and evaluated the adaptability of the support and surrounding rock control through numerical simulation and large-scale stope similar simulation experiments. ey determined the reasonable working resistance of the support in a fully mechanized mining face with a large mining height of 6.0 m. e results show that the determination of the working resistance of the large mining height fully mechanized support should meet the prerequisite of the control of the surrounding rock of the stope, such as the roof and the coal wall, and ensure a good position of the support. Yin [13] divided the relationship between the support and surrounding rock in the coal mining cycle into two stages in accordance with the given deformation, load, and different roof motion characteristics. is process is performed to reveal the dynamic mechanism of hydraulic support and surrounding rock. e theoretical analysis and field measurement results reveal the dynamic mechanism of the fully mechanized mining support and surrounding rock in the dual-cycle process.
At present, many scholars have conducted a lot of analysis on the mechanical properties of the deep roof rock mass and have obtained a series of results [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24]. Good research progress has also been made in the analysis of the bearing stability of the working face support. However, with the continuous advancement of the working face, the site cannot accurately grasp the deflection changes of the roof at different positions during the periodic weighting process, and it cannot accurately grasp the mechanism of the mechanical transfer of the roof to the stope support during the rotating and breaking process.
e important reason is that the interaction relationship between the different positions of the top plate and the bracket cannot be accurately judged. Under the action of strong mining pressure from the hard roof of deep wells, past engineering experience or similar working face processing methods are used to determine the reasonable working resistance of the working face support, and the deviation will often be large. Although there are related mechanical models to analyze the interaction between the roof and the support, it still fails to reveal the specific factors affecting the support stability of the working face; the load stability of the support under the strong mining force under the hard roof is not insufficient. erefore, this article takes the 11129 working face of Zhangji Coal Mine under the Huainan Mining Group as the background and develops the mechanical relationship of the "roof-support" common bearing structure of the working face under the condition of a hard roof. Analytical solutions of the support bearing resistance at different positions of the roof during the periodical weight and rotation of the working face were obtained and verified by numerical simulation and engineering practice, which provided a theoretical basis for safe and efficient mining in deep and hard roof coal mines.

Overview Analysis of the Hard Roof and Strong Mining Pressure Manifestation Project
e 11129 working face of Zhangji Coal Mine is 240 m long and 700 m buried deep from the ground. e main mining 9-1 coal has an average thickness of 1.9 m. e main mining seam is a monoclinic structure, which is generally high in the west and low in the east. e dip angle is 2°∼6°. e direct top lithology is 7 m thick quartz sandstone, the old top lithology is 8.0 m thick siltstone, and the direct bottom lithology is 2.5 m thick mudstone, with an average thickness of 5.2 m.
ick siltstone, with an average thickness and the occurrence of the roof and floor rocks of the coal seam, is shown in Figure 1.
According to field investigation and analysis, we have the following: (1) Under the condition of hard roof, with the increase of the suspended roof size of the working face, the coal wall and mining roadway of the working face during the roof pressure period appear severe. (2) e working face is large. e size of the suspended roof is accompanied by a large bending and sinking of the roof, which significantly increases the bearing burden of the support. (3) e increased load of the support leads to an increase in the risk of pressing, which is not conducive to the safety control of the roof of the working face.

Analysis of the Mechanical Interaction
Relationship of the "Roof-Support" Common Bearing Structure of the Working Face Combining with previous studies on the characteristics of mining stress distribution in advance mining face [25,26], the mining stress distribution of coal and rock mass in advance mining face can be divided into three stages: stress reduction zone, stress increase zone, and original rock stress zone. At this time, the roof of the mining space is similar to a cantilever beam structure in the stress reduction zone. e upper boundary is subjected to compression load due to the mining of the stress reduction zone, and the lower boundary is the support resistance. As shown in Figure 2, the stope space after the overlying basic roof is broken. Its own mass and the load of the following rock layer are transmitted to the coal wall and the support through the direct roof. e support and the coal wall jointly bear the quality of the roof rock layer in the small structure of the stope and press forward along the unit width roof cycle. On the basis of the analytical mechanics model, the weight of the coal and rock mass above the working front is taken as the distributed load, and the maximum load kp is reached at l 1 in front of the coal wall. e force of the support is analyzed using the deflection and deformation equation of the cantilever beam. e coordinate system is established with the end of the cantilever beam as the origin, and the force analysis of the rectangular cantilever beam is solved by elastic mechanics, which is obtained by the balance equation: where M is the bending moment of cantilever beam, kN·m, and I is the moment of inertia of beam section, bh 3 /12. Among them, Here, C is a constant. Deformation component is Equation (3) integrates x and y to obtain the following: Among them, f 1 and f 2 are the undetermined functions of y and x, respectively. Substituting formula (4) into the integral of formula (3), we get e constraints are as follows: Shock and Vibration We can solve the following: We derive the cantilever beam deflection equation: At present, the rigidity range of the support line [27] is 100∼600 kN/m, the rigidity range is 10∼80 MPa/m, and the support force is as follows: where K is the stent stiffness, MPa/m, and A is the holder supporting area, m 2 .

Analysis of the Factors Influencing the Bearing Stability of the Working Face Support
e force effect of fully mechanized support is mainly related to factors, such as stress concentration factor k, buried depth H, cantilever roof thickness h, cantilever length l 0 , and the distance between the peak support pressure and the coal wall l 1 . In accordance with the mine pressure law and geological structure conditions, the engineering parameter k is 2.5, the roof elastic modulus E � 33.4 GPa, the pseudo roof thickness is 0.5 m, and the direct roof thickness is 7.1 m. e roof thickness h � 7.6 m, periodic collapse step l 0 � 13 m, the distance from peak bearing pressure to coal wall l 1 � 10 m, bulk density c � 25 kN/m 3 , buried depth H � 700 m, and the average load per unit width p � 17.5 MN/m. e rigidity of the ZZ10800/18/38D type support is 25.0 MPa/m, the control distance of the support is 5275-6175 mm, the height is 5.7 m, and the width is 1.5 m. e control roof area A � 5.7 × 1.5 � 8.55 m 2 , and p 0 � 0.6p. For the convenience of drawing, the coal wall is set as the origin of the coordinate, and the reaction force of the support, excluding external and human factors, and different parameters are taken to compare and analyze the pressure change in the support, as shown in Figure 3.
As shown in Figures 3(a) and 3(e), the stronger the advanced mining intensity (the greater the stress concentration factor k) and the closer the advanced mining stress concentration is to the coal wall cause the upper boundary load of the cantilever beam of the working face to increase. When the coefficient k fluctuates within 1.5-3.0, the bearing resistance of the support varies from 3182 kN to 4931 kN. When the distance of l 1 is increased from 5 m to 12 m, the resistance of the support at the minimum control distance position is attenuated from 3840.3 kN to 3222.7 kN, and the attenuation amplitude is 16%. e resistance of the support at the maximum control distance is attenuated from 4963 kN to 4170.7 kN, with an attenuation amplitude of 16%. e resistance of the support at the center of the control distance is attenuated from 4332 kN to 3637.7 kN, with an attenuation amplitude of 16%. From the above, it can be known that as the distance from the coal wall increases, the resistance of the support increases, but the attenuation amplitude is basically the same. Figures 3(b), 3(c), and 3(d), the greater the buried depth of the coal seam and the greater the elastic modulus E and thickness h of the hard roof of the working face, the greater the impact on the support bearing burden. When the buried depth reaches 300 and 900 m, the bearing resistance of the support within the maximum control distance is 1863 and 5590 kN. When the elastic modulus of the roof increases from 8 GPa to 32 GPa, the support pressure of the stope gradually decreases from 18,152 kN to 4538 kN. With the gradual increase in the thickness of the top plate, the bearing pressure of the support decreased from 40,908 kN to 2157 kN. erefore, understanding the engineering geological parameters of the working face in advance and evaluating the degree of change in the working resistance of the support and its safety and stability are necessary when encountering the hard roof conditions of the working face.

As shown in
As shown in Figure 3(f), the greater the length of the roof overhang on the working face, the greater the compressive strength of the roof overlying rock, thereby increasing the bearing burden of the support. e length of the cantilever beam was increased from 10 m to 20 m, and the resistance of the support at the minimum control distance position was increased from 1692.9 kN to 9805.3 kN, an increase of 4.8 times. e resistance of the support at the maximum control distance increased from 2157.4 kN to 12928.9 kN, an increase of 6 times. e resistance of the support at the center of the control distance increased from 1897.4 kN to 11163.5 kN, an increase of 5.9 times. It can be seen from the above that as the length of the cantilever beam increases, the resistance of the support increases geometrically, and the magnitude of the increase is greatest at the position of the maximum control distance. is finding shows that the larger the suspended roof is unconducive to the safe bearing of the support. e presplitting and cutting are necessary to improve the roof pressure appearance environment.
On the basis of the above analysis, the bearing stability of the support is obviously affected by buried depth H, roof elastic modulus E, thickness h, and roof cantilever length l 0 . However, most of the influencing factors belong to the coal seam's own geological conditions. In the actual mining process, understanding the engineering geological parameters of the working face and evaluating the degree of change in the work resistance of the support and its safety and stability are necessary. When encountering the hard roof conditions of the working face, presplit blasting and cutting of the roof must be conducted in advance to control its periodic weighting distance. is process effectively weakens and destroys the integrity of the hard roof.
e roof pressure appearance environment must be improved, and the bearing burden of the working face support must be reduced to ensure the safe and efficient mining of the working face of the underground coal mine.  (9) is used to solve the change relationship of the working resistance of the bracket at different positions, and the diagram of the change of the working resistance of the bracket is drawn, as shown in Figure 4. As shown in Figure 4, the distribution of the working resistance of the bracket at different positions is analyzed. e roof breaks and collapses periodically during the mining process of the working face. During the breakage and rotation of the roof, the working resistance force at different positions of the roof changes linearly with the working resistance of the stope's hydraulic support. With the distance from the coal wall, the working resistance of the support gradually increases, and the working resistance of the support within the control roof distance range (5275-6175 mm) is 3360.8-4347.9 kN.
Roof cutting control is to conduct deep hole presplitting blasting at different distances in advance of the working face.
is process destroys the integrity of the roof and achieves pressure relief and a relatively stable periodic collapse step. In accordance with the analysis of the field measured data of the 11129 working face, the average step length l 0 (15.2-17.1 m) of the roof slab collapse before topping is 16 m on average, and the average of l 0 (12.5-13.5 m) after topping is 13 m. e step distance of different parts of the working face is shown in Figure 5. Formula (9) is substituted into formula (9) to compare and analyze the changes in the working resistance of the support at different positions before and after the topping, as shown in Figure 6.
As shown in Figure 5, comparing the pressure step distance between the blasting area and the no blasting area, it can be seen that the pressure step distance of the no blasting area is higher than that of the blasting area, and the pressure step distance of each support in the no blasting area ranges from 15.3 m to 17.1 m, the average pressure step distance is 16 m, the pressure step distance of each support in the blasting area ranges from 12.5 m to 13.5 m, and the average pressure step distance is 13 m. e reason is that the no blasting area is affected by the rotational movement of the overlying rock. Owing to the longer rock-breaking block, the smaller rotation angle of the overlying rock-breaking block can be supported by the falling gangue in the goaf, and the phenomenon that the working face cycle is large and the pressure lasts longer. Presplitting blasting destroys the integrity of the overburden and makes it a massive structure. e fractured block of the rock strata is short, the overburden fractured block has a relatively large rotation angle supported by the falling gangue in the goaf, and the pressure step is relatively short. During the pressurization period, the upper and lower support steps in the blasting area and the no blasting area are smaller than other parts. is is not only related to the movement state of the roof before and after the deep hole blasting but also has a direct reason for the advancing speed of the working face due to various reasons.  As shown in Figure 6, comparing and analyzing the force of the bracket before and after the topping, it can be seen that within the range of the control top distance (5275∼6175 mm). e average working resistance of the bracket before and after the topping is 6546.5 and 3854.5 kN, respectively, and the pressure before and after the topping is about 1.7 times that of the pressure after the topping. With the continuous increase of the distance between the support and the coal wall, the range of the work resistance difference of the stope support gradually increases and the support load increases. erefore, the advanced deep hole presplitting blasting can effectively reduce the support work resistance and improve the stope working environment.

Design of the Control Scheme for the Hard Roof and Forced Mining to Press and Cut the Roof.
e advanced presplitting blasting method is highly adaptable to the geological and technical conditions of the coal seam, has less impact on the normal mining of the working face, and requires less special equipment. e roof with better integrity is changed to a roof with artificial cracks, and the roof that is not easy to fall is changed to a roof that is easy to fall so as to reduce the suspended roof area of the goaf and eliminate pressure accumulation. In accordance with the specific geological conditions of the 11129 working face, a segmented deep hole presplitting blasting plan is adopted for the roof of the working face. e thick and hard sandstone direct-coated roof and the composite roof are at different distances from the cut holes in the two grooves. A 200-m retreat point is selected as the dividing line to design different roof deep hole blasting schemes. e blasting plan is divided into four steps: the first step is to blast in the cut hole to shorten the initial pressure step; the second step is to blast to the upper roof of the working face within a range of 200 m to solve the problem of large thick sandstone on the old roof on the composite roof; the third step is to blast the upper roof inside the working face within the range of 200 m to 700 m to solve the problem of thick sandstone direct overburden; and the fourth step is to blast in the axial direction of the groove to solve the problem of untimely falling of the upper and lower corner roofs. e cross-sectional view of the blast hole is shown in Figure 7.
Before installation of the working face support, deep hole blasting is performed for forced topping in the cut hole, as shown in Figure 7. e advantage of this scheme is that it does not affect production, can effectively cut the top plate, and shorten the initial pressure step. In the cut hole, holes are punched at a distance of 35 m from the coal wall at the lower end and 1.5 m from the goaf side coal bank with a hole e first group of blast holes are 12 m away from the coal wall of the cut hole within 200 m in front of the cut in the working face. e horizontal spacing of blast holes is 1.5 m, the long and short holes are staggered, and the group spacing is 20 m. Specifically, the distance between the first blast hole in the second group and the third blast hole in the first group is 20 m. In the haulage roadway or track roadway, every two sets of blast hole exploration and charge are sealed, that is, six holes can be detonated at the same time. Deep hole loosening blasting is performed on the upper roof of the inner working face of the haulage roadway and the track roadway. In accordance with the roof collapse and the characteristics of the working face rock pressure, the working face is determined whether it is within 100 m from the cut-off coal wall. Deep hole loosening blasting is conducted on the upper roof of the working face. Affecting the gas drainage must be avoided because a high-drainage roadway is arranged at approximately 30 m above the roof of the coal seam and approximately 30 m away from the track roadway.
In the range of 200-700 m in front of the cut hole in the working face, the roof of the working face is mostly thick and hard sandstone directly covered roof. Deep hole loosening blasting is conducted on the upper roof of the working face every 30 m in the two troughs. is process is performed to make the roof of the working face controllable and ensure the normal and safe production of the working face. e horizontal spacing of the blast holes in the group is 1.5 m, and the long and short holes are staggered. Affecting the gas drainage must be avoided because a high-drainage roadway is arranged at approximately 30 m above the roof of the coal seam and approximately 30 m away from the rail. e roof is changed with better integrity to the artificial cracked roof through the combination of blasting on the roof of the cut-off hole, two-lane advanced deep hole blasting, and in-plane advanced deep hole blasting. e hard-to-fall huge sandstone roof fall section is made by sectioning after manual intervention, and the suspended roof area of the goaf is reduced. Pressure accumulation is eliminated, and the risk of roof fall during stoping and gas accumulation risks are reduced. e Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion was also adopted to analyze the mechanical characteristics of coal and rock mass in this model. Domestic and foreign scholars have conducted several experiments and studies on the abutment effect of equivalent filled rock mass in goafs [28][29][30][31]. In the present study, the goaf was simulated with the double-yield model. e stress-strain relation of the rock mass in the goaf is presented in Table 2, and the mechanical parameters of the rock mass in the double-yield goaf are presented in Table 3. e simulated 11129 working face advances along the strike (positive direction of the y-axis) from the cut-off cut, and the cut-off cut is 200 m away from the boundary to eliminate the influence of boundary effects. e excavation step is 20 m, the goaf is backfilled and balanced, the direction is advanced by 260 m, and the mining is stopped at y � 460 m. During the stoping process, the pressure distribution of the stope before and after the top cut and the real-time working resistance changes in the supports at different positions are analyzed, as shown in Figures 9 and 10.

Analysis of the Practical Effect of the Roof
As shown in Figure 9, a goaf is formed behind the working face and the stress is redistributed with the advancement of the working face. e center of the stope support bears the greatest force and gradually decreases to two sides of the working face, approximately showing a "∧" change. A concentrated stress area is found around the goaf before the topping, where the maximum leading support pressure is 40 MPa and the stress concentration factor is 2.1. After the roof is cut, the coal wall advances the supporting pressure zone forward, forming a small local stress concentration between the blocks. A large stress concentration area is formed in the front before cutting the roof section. e influence range of the lateral support pressure in the goaf area increases after the roof is cut, and the maximum stress is 40 MPa.
As shown in Figure 10, compare and analyze the changes in the working resistance of the stope support before and after roof cutting when the support is at different distances from the coal wall; the real-time working resistance of the support before and after the top-cutting gradually increases with the mining (number of steps) of the working face and finally stabilizes. e support is at the minimum control distance (5275 mm), and the end resistance of the support before and after the topping is 5436 and 3235 kN, respectively. After the roof cutting, the working resistance of the stope support is obviously improved, and the pressure is reduced by 40.5% on average; the stent is at the maximum control distance (6175 mm), the end resistance of the stent before and after the roof cutting is 7108 and 4126 kN respectively, and the pressure is reduced by 42% on average. Effective roof cutting measures under hard roof conditions can help improve the working environment of stope supports and ensure safe and efficient mining at the 11129 working face.

Engineering Practice Effect Feedback.
e roof support of the 11129 working face of Zhangji Mine adopts ZZ10800/18/ 38D type support shield type support, and the support strength is 1.39-1.5 MPa.
e support center distance is 1500 mm, the top beam length is 5275 mm, and the frame moving step distance is 800 mm. e topping plan was implemented within the range of 175 m from the cutting eye at the project site, and the working resistance of the support was compared and analyzed with the subsequent range of 175-300 m without topping. In accordance with the original cyclic resistance curve of the working face support, combined with the roof deep hole blasting parameters and the daily cutting and retracting conditions of the working face, the specific pressure curve change law of the hydraulic support is selected for analysis. e ore compaction measurement during the production period shows that the initial pressure step distance of the different sections of the working face is 40.08 m (excluding the width of the open cut). During the compression period, the average dynamic load coefficient is 1.3-1.5. During the mining face, the time-weighted resistance of each observation support is 2514-3521 kN, accounting for 23.3%-32.6% of the rated working resistance. e end-of-circulation resistance is 3892-4521 kN, accounting for 36.4%-41.9% of the rated working resistance. e actual measured curves of the real-time working resistance of the support before and after the top-cutting observation of working faces #40, #60, #70, and #140 are shown in Figure 11. e measured data of the pressure changes of the #40, #60, #70, and #140 supports in the 11129 working face are selected for research. e #40 support is located at the lower part of the 11129 working face; the average end resistance of the support before and after the top is 4736 and 4197 kN, respectively. Compared with other parts, the pressure of the support is relatively small. e reason is that the support is located at the end of the stope, the end of the roof is bent and sinks less, and the force transmitted to the support is relatively small. e #60 and #70 supports are located in the middle of the working face of the stope, and the resistance at the end of the support before the top cut is 5006 and 5693 kN, respectively. e deflection of the middle part of the roof changes the most, and the force acting on the support is relatively large. e end resistance of the support is significantly reduced after the top is cut in the working face. e average end resistance of the #60 and #70 supports are reduced by 29.8% and 38.6%, respectively. Field data prove that the implementation of presplitting blasting can effectively improve the force of stope supports. e #140 bracket is also located at the end of the working surface, and the average end resistance is higher than that of the #40 bracket. e reason is that the #140 support is closer to the track along the trough, the track along the trough is more simplified than the transportation along the trough, and the force acting on the stope support is slightly larger than the lower support. In the early stage of mining, no abnormalities, such as slabs, roof leakage, and water splashing on the coal wall, are found in accordance with on-site observations. In the normal mining stage, the opening rate of the support safety valve after roof cutting is less than 5%, the coal wall integrity is good, and has no major impact on the mining process.
e roof cutting effect is good, and the support working resistance meets the control requirements of the surrounding rock of the stope.

Conclusions
(1) A mechanical model of the interaction between the cantilever beam of the hard roof of the stope and the support during periodic breakage is established. e force distribution equations under different distances from the support to the coal wall are obtained. e theoretical value is slightly larger than the numerical simulation and the actual measurement site. e reason is that the theoretical calculation simplifies the mechanical model and does not consider the bearing capacity of the overlying rock. e overlying rock bears a certain self-weight load in the field, which reduces the force acting on the support.
(2) e load-bearing stability of the support is significantly affected by factors, such as buried depth H, elastic modulus of the roof itself, thickness h, and roof cantilever length l 0 . However, most of the influencing factors belong to the geological conditions of the coal seam itself. In the actual mining process, understanding the engineering geological parameters of the working face and evaluating the degree of change in the work resistance of the support and its safety and stability are necessary.
(3) e advanced presplit blasting can effectively destroy the integrity of the roof itself and reduce the periodic breaking distance, thereby improving the apparent problems of the roof rock pressure and reducing the load on the support of the working face. e measured results show that the average end resistance of the support before and after roof cutting is reduced from 5235.25 kN to 3558.25 kN, reducing the bearing capacity of the support by 30.7%. e pressure distribution of the hydraulic support in the numerical simulation stope is approximately "Λ" in the middle and lower sides. e simulated value is slightly smaller than the theoretical calculation value.
is finding is because the goaf is backfilled during the simulation process, and the roof has a certain ability to bear the load. (4) e 11129 working face is the first coal mining face of group B in the central area of Zhangji Mine. In accordance with the specific geological environment of the working face, the cut-off plan for the cut hole and the concrete presplitting blasting along the groove are given. Deep hole presplitting blasting is conducted to reduce the risk of mining and provide experience for the subsequent mining of group B coal in the later period.
