Mine Induced Subsidence: Effects on Engineered Structures : Proceedings (Geotechnical Special Publication)

By H. J. Siriwardane

Proceedings of a symposium at the ASCE National Convention, held in Nashville, Tennessee, May 11, 1988. Sponsored by the Geotechnical Engineering Division of ASCE. This Geotechnical Special Publication contains 11 papers offering a collection of case histories of the control and effects of mine-induced subsidence on engineered structures, a growing concern of the U.S. coal industry. These papers review structural damage and reconstruction in areas of underground coal mining, subsidence effects and damage to highways and other transportation facilities, and subsidence causes and effects over abandoned mine lands. In addition, the analysis of subsidence stabilization techniques, control by grouting, and abatement projects are presented.
