Grouting Technique for Gob-Side Entry Retaining in Deep Mines

The retained rib displacement accounts for roughly 80% of rib-to-rib convergence in gob-side entry retaining in deep coal mines, which shows significant nonsymmetrical feature and long-term rheological phenomenon. Affected by mining-induced stress, cracks spread widely, and broken zones expand beyond the anchoring range. Without grouting and supplementary support in retained rib, the surrounding rock-support load-bearing structure will be in a postpeak failure state, and the anchoring force of the bolting system will be greatly attenuated. After grouting, the compressive strength of grouting geocomposite specimen is significantly higher than the postpeak residual strength of the intact coal specimen, and it is partially restored compared to that of the intact coal specimen. The ductility of the fractured coal specimen increases after grouting, and it has stronger elasticity and plasticity. Broken rock block can become a whole with coordinated bearing capacity, and its stability is improved after grouting. The grouting technique could restore the integrity and strength of the fractured retained coal rib, repair the damaged bolting structure, and make the surrounding rock and supporting structure become an effective bearing structure again. The research result shows that it is feasible to restore the bearing capacity of the retained coal rib by grouting technique.
