The effects of reinforcement system on pillars were tested in laboratory, using three types of pillars with different strengths. The tests were performed using the UCS machine, to test pillar without reinforcement, pillar with rock bolt reinforcement, pillar with shotcrete reinforcement and pillar with the combination of both rock bolt and shotcrete reinforcement. Uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) testing aims to determine the effects of the reinforcement system on pillar strength. The results of this study indicate that the reinforcement system on high strength pillars causes a strength increase of 14.93% on pillar with rock bolt reinforcement, 21.45% on pillar with shotcrete reinforcement and 34.67% on pillar with combination of rock bolt and shotcrete reinforcement. On medium strength pillars, reinforcement installation shows a strength increase of 16.27% on pillar with reinforced rock bolt, 19.83% on pillar with reinforced shotcrete and 44.40% on pillar with combination of rock bolt and shotcrete reinforcement. Likewise, on low strength pillars, reinforcement installation causes a strength increase of 13.13% on pillar with reinforced rock bolt, 36.21% on pillar with reinforced shotcrete and 53.85% on pillar with combination of rock bolt and shotcrete reinforcement. The results of laboratory testing and numerical modeling indicate that the increase in strength occurs because the horizontal displacement on the surface of the pillar wall is detained by shotcrete and faceplate on rock bolt, so that the pillar seems to have confining pressure throughout the pillar wall surface, which is called as equivalent confining pressure.

Abstract The paper presents the analysis of the phenomenon of horizontal displacement of surface induced by underground mining exploitation. In the initial part, the basic theories describing horizontal displacement are discussed, followed by three illustrative examples of underground exploitation in varied mining conditions. It is argued that center of gravity (COG) method presented in the paper, hypothesis of Awierszyn and model studies carried out in Strata Mechanics Research Institute of the Polish Academy of Sciences indicate the proportionality between vectors of horizontal displacement and the vector of surface slope. The differences practically relate to the value of proportionality coefficient B, whose estimated values in currently realized design projects for mining industry range between 0.23r to 0.42r for deep exploitations, whereas in the present article the values of 0.33r and 0.47r were obtained for two instances of shallow exploitation. Furthermore, observations on changes of horizontal displacement vectors with face advancement indicated the possibility of existence of COG zones above the mined-out field, which proved the conclusions of hitherto carried out research studies (Tajduś 2013).

Fiber-reinforced metal matrix composites have mechanical properties highly dependent on directions, possessing high strength and fatigue resistance in fiber longitudinal direction achieved by weak interface bonding. However, the disadvantage of weak interface combination is the reduction of transversal performances. In this article, tensile and fatigue properties of carbon fiber-reinforced 5056 aluminum alloy matrix (Cf/5056Al) composite under the condition of medium-strength interface combination are carried out. The fatigue damage mechanisms of Cf/5056Al composite under tension–tension and tension–compression loads are not the same, but the fatigue life curves are close, which may be the result of the medium-strength interface combination.

This paper presents research on the impact of fly ash addition on selected physical and mechanical parameters of concrete made with slag cement. Experimental tests were carried out to measure the migration of chloride ions in concrete, the tightness of concrete exposed to water under pressure, and the compressive strength and tensile strength of concrete during splitting. Six series of concrete mixes made with CEM IIIA 42.5 and 32.5 cement were tested. The base concrete mix was modified by adding fly ash as a partial cement substitute in the amounts of 25% and 33%. A comparative analysis of the obtained results indicates a significant improvement in tightness, especially in concrete based on CEM IIIA 32.5 cement and resistance to chloride ion penetration for the concretes containing fly ash additive. In the concretes containing fly ash additive, a slower rate of initial strength increase and high strength over a long period of maturation are shown. In accordance with the presented research results, it is suggested that changes to the European standardization system be considered, to allow the use of fly ash additive in concrete made with CEM IIIA 42.5 or 32.5 cement classes. Such a solution is not currently acceptable in standards in some European Countries.

The article presents the impact of geological and mining factors on the stability of room excavations in the Legnica-Głogów Copper District (LGOM) in Poland. In underground mining, the primary task of bolting of mining excavations is to ensure their stability as an essential condition of work safety. Appreciating the role and importance of the rock bolting in Polish ore mining; rock bolt load sensors were designed, manufactured and tested under laboratory conditions. The purpose of the research was to characterize the sensors and determine the elastic range of the bearing plate, which are an integral part of the sensor. The sensors have been verified in industrial conditions. The tests were carried out in the underground copper ore mine in Poland. Three rooms in the exploitation field were selected for testing, where exploitation was carried out at a depth of 809–820 m below the ground surface with the application of room and pillar with roof deflection and maintaining the central part of the field. The exploitation field included 60 rooms and pillars. The effectiveness of the mechanical load sensor of the expansion rock bolt support has been experimentally confirmed. Based on mine research, it was found that the largest increases in the load of the rock bolting, vertical stress and convergence occur in the middle of the mining field.

It is well established that lateral confinement of concrete enhances its axial strength and deformability. It is often assumed that, at a same level of confining pressure, the axial compressive stress and strain of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP)-confined concrete at a given lateral strain are the same as those in concrete actively confined concrete. To assess the validity of this assumption, an experimental program relating both types of confinement systems was conducted. 25 FRP-confined and actively confined high-strength concrete (HSC) specimens cast from a same batch of concrete were tested under axial compression. The axial stress-strain and lateral strain-axial strain curves obtained from the two different confinement systems were assessed. The results indicate that, at a given axial strain, lateral strains of actively confined and FRP-confined concretes correspond, when they are subjected to the same lateral confining pressure. However, it is observed that, at these points of intersections on axial strain-lateral strain curves, FRP-confined concrete exhibits a lower axial stress than the actively confined concrete, indicating that the aforementioned assumption is not accurate. The test results indicate that the difference in the axial stresses of FRP-confined and actively confined HSC becomes more significant with an increase in the level of confining pressure.
