Prestressed anchor support is one of the most important support methods for coal mine roadways. As the coal mining depth increases, the adaptability of existing prestressed anchor has become weaker and weaker, which is mainly reflected in the current anchor prestress is much smaller than the support resistance required for the stability of the roadways and makes it difficult to effectively control the roadways. In order to solve the problem, a group anchor structure was proposed to realize higher prestressed anchor support technology and improve the support status of deep roadways. For coal mine roadways, group anchor structure is a new technology and new topic, and the design method and theoretical basis of the group anchor support are lacking. Therefore, the paper studied the bearing capacity of the group anchors through physical tests and numerical simulations. Among them, a special set of group anchor drawing tooling was designed and processed to match the physical test. The test results show that the group anchor structure can double the bearing capacity and bearing rigidity compared with traditional anchors, and the group anchor support can further optimize the support parameters to improve the bearing capacity of the surrounding rock. Therefore, the group anchor support is helpful to the stability control of the surrounding rock of the deep roadway.
