Summary: | In underground mine planning, the construction of a tunnel must consider the
surrounding rock conditions. These conditions affect the collapse zones that may
occur in the tunnel. The thickness of the collapse zone can be modeled using the
RockScience 2 (RS2) software. The modeling will be performed using the Mohr-
Coulomb and Hoek-Brown criteria to compare the resulting plastic zones and
determine whether the Factor of Safety value is consistent with the plastic zones
from both criteria. Based on the modeling conducted, it shows that the collapse zone
produced with the Hoek-Brown criterion is smaller compared to the Mohr-Coulomb
criterion. This is due to the Hoek-Brown criterion's approach, which uses cohesion
(c) and internal friction angle (?) parameters along with the material constant mb
and rock mass constant s, which have smaller values. And the theoretical calculation
re show that the Factor of Safety value from the Hoek-Brown criteria is smaller
than that of Mohr-Coulomb. |
