Beam models for the hangingwall of deep, tabular excavations in stratified rock
In the South African gold mining industry, mining is being conducted at depths of over 3 000 m below the surface. Severe fracturing and deformation of the rock occurs making it unlikely that stress analysis which treats the rock as a homogeneous elastic material will yield useful results about the b...
