Linkage Analysis between Solid-Fluid Coupling and the Strength Reduction Method for Karst Cave Water Inrush in Mines by Yanlin Zhao, Jian Liao, Qiang Liu, Yang Li, Jianchao Cheng

“…It is proposed that thickness of the water-proof rock pillar whose safety factor equals 1.5 is regarded as the calculating safety thickness of the water-proof rock pillar, and the safety thickness of the water-proof rock pillar setting in mining engineering should be equal to the sum of the blasthole depth, blasting disturbance depth, and the calculating safety thickness. The reason leading to Karst water inrush of Qiyi Mine is that without advanced boreholes, the water-proof rock pillar is set so small that it could not possess safety margin, so the confined Karst cave water breaks the water-proof rock pillar and bursts out. …”
