Influence of backfill on coal pillar strength and floor bearing capacity in weak floor conditions in the Illinois Basin
This paper discusses the current theoretical design equations associated with foundation design in the Illinois Basin, as well as the benefits of utilizing high density backfill in a numerical model, to improve pillar and floor stability. Based upon the results, Vesic's bearing capacity solutio...
