Aiming at the harm and control methods of thick and hard roof in coal mine, the paper firstly analyzes the advanced control methods of thick and hard roof, such as directional shaped charge blasting roof control technology, hydraulic fracturing roof control technology, abrasive water jet directional cutting roof technology, large-scale special roof cutting machine, etc Control hole fracturing, transverse slotting fracturing and longitudinal slotting fracturing are compared and analyzed; finally, the shortcomings of current research are analyzed. According to the current research results, the analysis shows that: the method of controlling roof by blasting in the future will be limited, while the method of hydraulic fracturing, especially directional hydraulic fracturing, has obvious advantages; the longitudinal slotting fracturing has the best control over fractures in the directional hydraulic fracturing technology; the guiding mechanism and fracture extension mechanism of longitudinal slotting hydraulic fracturing in thick and hard roof need to be further studied; lack of field application research and corresponding equipment development, lack of field effect evaluation method after longitudinal slotting fracturing.

According to the conventional fracturing could easily lead to the local stress concentration of coal, the effect of pressure relief and permeability improvement is not ideal. The mechanism of directional hydraulic fracturing is analyzed and the parameters such as the layout of directional hole, the fracturing hole sealing, the minimum cracking pressure are discussed, then the field application tests are carried out. The results show that the directional hydraulic fracturing effect is better than that of ordinary fracturing hole and the maximum concentration and the average drainage scalar is respectively 3.75 times and 4 times of the ordinary hole pumping gas fracturing effects. The effect of permeability improvement is remarkable.

Coal Pillars

After mining the upper-goaf side, large coal pillars and part of hard roof exposed above the pillars remain. The hard roof can significantly deform the roadway by transferring high stress through coal pillars to the roadway. This paper reports the use of hydraulic fracturing technology to cut the hard roof on both sides (i.e. the broken roof slides to the goaf) to relieve the pressure. The position of the roof fracture is the key to controlling the pressure relief. The bearing characteristics of the large coal pillars and hard roof are analyzed to establish a mechanical model of the broken-roof sliding instability after directional fracturing and determine the width of the coal pillars that can collapse under maximum overburden load on coal pillars as a reasonable hydraulic fracturing position. The results show that the distance from the mine gateway to the fracture location increases with increasing hard-roof length, coal pillar depth, coal pillar thickness (mining height), and goaf width. In addition, the distance to the mine gateway decreases with increasing coal strength, support of the coal pillar by the anchor rod, cohesive force, and internal friction angle of the coal–rock interface. Engineering tests were applied in coal roadway 5107 of coal seam 5# of the Baidong Coal Mine of the Datong Coal Mine Group. Given the site conditions, a reasonable fracturing length of 8.8 m was obtained. Next, directional hydraulic fracturing was implemented. The comparison of the roof deformation before and after fracturing suggests that this method reduces the local stress concentration in coal pillars, which allows the surrounding rock deformation in roadway 5107 to be controlled.

Directional hydraulic fracturing method (DHF method) for controlling hard roof in coal mines and the means of its implementation is given in the paper. The method allows getting extended, set in a given direction cracks for stratification and cutting off the roof and for providing their controlled caving in different technological schemes. Geo-physical methods are introduced, the monitoring and the mine site experimental testing data on controlling the roofs applying the method of extraction pillar seismic testing on transmitted waves are studied. The experience of applying the method at Kuzbass mines are analyzed.
