Ground Support Design under Dynamic Conditions

Typically, for dynamic conditions, the ground support is designed for the worst-case scenario based on: back-analyses of previous case histories, in situ simulated dynamic events (i.e. instrumented

blasts), laboratory dynamic testing.

Ground Support Testing at CanmetMINING

Laboratory and in-situ testing was chosen by CanmetMINING to fulfill their mandate on the safety of underground workers.

Noranda’s impact testing rig transferred to CanmetMINING in 2003 to continue the research on the long term in Canada

While not entirely representative of in situ conditions, laboratory testing does allow many scenarios which affect the safety and performance of support tendons to be investigated and compared in a controlled, repeatable and cost-effective manner.

Research Mandate

1. Installation, commissioning and upgrading the NTC equipment

2. Development of testing protocols for: resin/grout installation Friction bolt Bolt/accessories assemblies Surface support

3. Upgrade the machine to test bolt/surface support assembly

4. Prepare and update technical data sheets
