Abstract:

The temporary support design for the cross-passages construction are estimated by using the Q- value assessment of Barton (2013) and validation of Q-value system using finite element analysis package PLAXIS 2D. The Q-value is obtained from the GIRs and from face-mapping on site to provide the appropriate rock support solution. The Barton Q-value is an empirical approach, validation of the minimum support category is required to ensure its applicability to the site specific ground conditions. The validation of Q-value system is carried out by using finite element analyses with Mohr-Coulomb constitute model. The unsupported cross passages excavation are considered in finite element analyses and the results shows that the rock is self-supporting and Barton Q-value system is appropriate to the ground conditions encountered.
