The compressive strength of coal in Yanlong mine area of China is less than 3 MPa. Basically, it is powdery. The roof and floor rocks are mudstone. Therefore, this coal seam is a typical ?three soft? coal seam. Anchor and cable cannot be used due to low anchoring force. This paper describes how to support this type of soft coal roadway. The deformation characteristics of soft coal roadway were investigated. Results show the conventional U-shaped steel support is not subjected to uniform load, which bearing capacity can be improved by structural compensation, such as addition of horizontal and vertical beams made of U-shaped steel. In addition, by drilling pressure-relief holes in the ribs of a soft coal roadway, the stress distribution of surround rock in the roadway can be improved, which can transfer the high stress in the surrounding rock to deeper parts and reduce the pressure on the artificial support. A support method is to combine the strengthened U-shaped steel support with pressure-relieving drill holes, providing an economic and efficient way to support the very soft coal roadways.

B1 coal seam located at -550m level in Liangbei Coal Mine is a typical "three-soft" seam. The coal roadway with a depth of 610-750m lies under the critical softening depth of the roadway, and its support difficulty coefficient is 1.5-2.0. The coal has poor air permeability, high gas content and high gas pressure, so danger degree of the gas outburst is relatively strong. The coal seam was destroyed in a disastrous state by more than 100 boreholes for gas outburst prevention during the excavation. This results in the difficulty in the roadway support. Engineering geological characteristics of the coal roadway at 11 mining area are introduced. Based on the engineering geo-mechanics method, the reasons of deformation and failure of the coal roadway are analyzed. In view of problems in excavation and support, as well as the type of the coal roadway deformation mechanism, the borehole parameters are optimized for the gas outburst prevention, and bolt-net-cable coupling support with high convex steel-belt is used to control the coal roadway stability at 11 mining area. Practice shows that the effect is fine.

To solve the problems of gas predrainage in deep seams with “three softs” and low-air permeability, hydraulic punching pressure relief antireflection technology is proposed on the basis of the research background of gas predrainage technology in Lugou Mine to alleviate technical problems, such as low gas drainage efficiency, in this mine. Through the analysis of the mechanism of hydraulic punching and coal breaking, combined with FLAC3D software, a hydraulic punching pressure relief antireflection model is established. Then, the fracture radii of coal rock are simulated and calculated. The results show that, under hydraulic punching with a water pressure of 10 MPa and coal outputs of 3 m3, 6 m3, 9 m3, and 12 m3, the fracture radii of coal and rock are 3.4 m, 4.8 m, 5.5 m, and 5.9 m, respectively. Using the software to fit the relationship between coal output V and hydraulic punching fracture radius R under the same water pressure, R = 2.32479 V0.3839 is obtained. The field test is carried out in the bottom drainage roadway of 32141 in Lugou Mine. The application effect is as follows: the gas concentration of hydraulic punching with a coal output of 3 m3 is twice that of ordinary drilling, and the coal output of hydraulic punching with a coal output of 6 m3 is four times that of ordinary drilling. The extraction concentration is four times that of ordinary drilling, and the extraction concentration of hydraulic punching with a coal output of 9 m3 is 6.4 times that of ordinary drilling. Combining the results of the numerical simulation and taking into account the actual construction situation on site, the coal output of water jetting from the borehole is 9 m3, and the fracture radius is 5.5 m. This outcome means that the effective half radius is 5.5 m, and the borehole spacing is 7.7 m. These values are the construction parameters for large-scale applications. This proposal provides effective technology and equipment for gas drainage in the deep three-soft coal seam. Consequently, it has promotion and reference significance for gas drainage in coal seam of the same geological type.

This paper analyzes the large deformation of roadway in three-soft coal seam under the influence of tectonic stress. Taking the auxiliary conveying uphill roadway in Yili No. 1 Coal Mine as the engineering background, the deformation and failure mechanism of the surrounding rock and the supporting technology were studied. First, the characteristics of stress field and the surrounding rock properties of deep mining area were investigated through geostress measurement and rock mechanical test. Then, the roadway deformation and the loose circle of the supporting structure were obtained. Based on the results from measurement and theoretical analysis, we proposed a concept, i.e., “Stress adjustment-Strengthening-Grouting-Secondary support.” A numerical model was established to analyze the stress distribution and the state of plasticity in the surrounding rock. According to the results of the geostress measurement and the numerical simulation, a combined support scheme was proposed, i.e., “Yielding bolt & Shotcreting” as the primary support and “Prestressed grouting anchor cable & U-shaped shed” as the secondary support. Finally, the underground practice showed that the proposed support scheme can effectively control the large deformation and maintain the long-term stability of the roadway in deep and three-soft coal seam. The proposed technology has guiding significance for the support design under similar mining conditions.

Relief Effect

High-efficiency maintenance and control of the deep coal roadway surrounding rock stability is a reliable guarantee for sustainable development of a coal mine. However, it is difficult to control the stability of a roadway that locates near a roadway with large deformation. With return air roadway 21201 (RAR 21201) in Hulusu coal mine as the research background, in situ investigation, theoretical analysis, numerical simulation, and engineering practice were carried out to study pressure relief effect on the surrounding rock after the severe deformation of the roadway. Besides, the feasibility of excavating a new roadway near this damaged one by means of pressure relief effect is also discussed. Results showed that after the strong mining roadway suffered huge loose deformation, the space inside shrank so violently that surrounding rock released high stress to a large extent, which formed certain pressure relief effect on the rock. Through excavating a new roadway near this deformed one, the new roadway could obtain a relative low stress environment with the help of the pressure relief effect, which is beneficial for maintenance and control of itself. Equal row spacing double-bearing ring support technology is proposed and carried out. Engineering practice indicates that the new excavated roadway escaped from possible separation fracture in the roof anchoring range, and the surrounding rock deformation of the new roadway is well controlled, which verifies the pressure relief effect mentioned. This paper provides a reference for scientific mining under the condition of deep buried and high stress mining in western China.

Soft Coal Seam

High-pressure abrasive water jet flushing (HPAWJF) is an effective method used to improve coal seam permeability. In this study, based on the theories of gas flow and coal deformation, a coupled gas-rock model is established to investigate realistic failure processes by introducing equations for the evolution of mesoscopic element damage along with coal mass deformation. Numerical simulation of the failure and pressure relief processes is carried out under different coal seam permeability and flushing length conditions. Distributions of the seepage and gas pressure fields of the realistic failure process are analyzed. The effects of flushing permeability enhancement in a soft coal seam on the gas drainage from boreholes are revealed by conducting a field experiment. Conclusions can be extracted that the gas pressure of the slotted soft coal seam is reduced and that the gas drainage volume is three times higher than that of a conventional borehole. Field tests demonstrate that the gas drainage effect of the soft coal seam is significantly improved and that tunneling speed is nearly doubled. The results obtained from this study can provide guidance to gas drainage in soft coal seams regarding the theory and practice application of the HPAWJF method.
