Other construction methods include raise-boring, which is a method of constructing a shaft (or raise) where underground access has already been established. Raised bored shafts can be from the surface or from one horizon to another underground. The method can be remotely executed, not requiring people to enter the shaft.

The common yardstick by which we will measure all these mining methods is the basic decentralized crusher concept, beyond which portability, or the degree thereof, will be the special and distinguishing feature. Accordingly, underground hard-rock mines are divided into three major groups, listed below with their distinguishing characteristics.
This mechanical method statement covers the excavation, installation, jointing and backfilling of underground coated carbon steel piping. The pressure testing of all steel piping system will be conducted in accordance with applicable Hydrostatic Test Procedure. Roles and Responsibilities Project Manager is responsible for overall management including quality and HSE requirements of all
15.2.4.3 Measurement by the Excavation Method. An alternative to the core sampling method for bulk density is sampling by the excavation method (ISO, 1993a). Sampling of bulk density in stony soils is a much more delicate procedure, and generally more time consuming than sampling in stone-less soils.
Equipment Beam Stage Loader and Crusher. When the coal has been hauled to the maingate, it then has to be transferred through a 90 o turn, and loaded onto the maingate conveyor. This function is carried out by the "Beam Stage Loader or BSL", which is another scraper conveyor, in this case with steel plates on both sides and runs from the maingate drive to the maingate conveyor (belt).
before, without practising any excavation. There are two major methods in detecting the locations of the underground infrastructures. These are, the electromagnetic method and the Georadar (Ground Penetrating Radar) (GPR) method. Electromagnetic method is used only for detecting the locations of metal infrastructures.
🕑 Reading time: 1 minuteThere are number of excavation methods which are used for deep foundation construction such as full open cut method, bracing excavation, anchored excavation, island excavation methods,zoned excavation, top down construction methods etc. These excavation techniques are discussed.

3 Support requirements for the crusher cavern according to empirical methods Figure 6 shows an isometric view for the crusher cavern that considers mainly the dumping chamber, apron feeder, crusher chamber, main silo, main feeder and lift. Based on the large experience of excavation of tunnels and caverns in different rock units at El Teniente
Excavation Methods
Another kind of underground rock excavation is construction (tunneling) where the main aim is to develop underground tunnels, shafts, chambers and passageways for civil engineering use. Depending on the rock properties Hydraulic Breakers or Drum Cutters can be used as a primary excavation method or in combination with Drilling and Blasting.
The method may be used for ore mining in shrinkage stopes, for rising, and for underground construction projects where excavations of considerable vertical height may be needed, like ore and waste bins, crusher rooms, penstocks and tailrace tunnels.
In construction terms, excavation is the process of removing earth to form a cavity in the ground. On small sites or in confined spaces, excavation may be carried out by manual means using tools such as picks, shovels and wheelbarrows. Larger scale excavation works will require heavy plant such as bulldozers and backactors.
stroke at the crusher discharge. The large stroke, combined with the right speed, fly-wheel inertia and high vailable crusher power result in truly high crusher perform-ance. Operation at small settings as well as the method of setting measurement results in finer products in comparison to other crushers. The right jaws for a given application
The Toguraci underground mine started operating in May 2011, using the Underhand Cut &Fill and Long-hole Stoping mining methods. Currently the average amount of total material movement achieved in the Toguraci underground mine, is about 1,500 tons per day. Toguraci has its unique characteristic not found in underground mines in other locations.
Other construction methods include raise-boring, which is a method of constructing a shaft (or raise) where underground access has already been established. Raised bored shafts can be from the surface or from one horizon to another underground. The method can be remotely executed, not requiring people to enter the shaft.
You ask about the meaning of certain terminology in 29 CFR 1926.651(b)(2) and (b)(3) regarding methods that may be used to locate underground utilities, and whether hydro-vacuum excavation complies with that standard. 1 We apologize for the long delay in responding.

Method Statement for the crushing of rock and or demolition material on site using a dedicated material crusher. This document is to be read in conjunction with all operating procedures supplied by the manufacturer/supplier. These will apply to the operation of crushers supplied by any other company. All Crusher operatives will be fully briefed
There is a need for a compact, portable, underground hardrock crusher, with the major constraint on size being height; Maximum crusher dimensions, including provision to feed the machine, should be about 7 to 9 feet high by 8 feet wide by any reasonable length; Total throughput should be 100-300 tons per hour

Underground Mining Methods Glossary Bolting
Truck and shovel excavation systems are very common and efficient methods in surface mining. They are very adaptable to change in peak geometry in the advent of variations to geology or to sudden failures. They involve a relatively low capital cost and additional equipment can be obtained at short notice. In addition, they have higher resale value.

The various underground construction methods discussed as options for the example facility must be evaluated on a site-specific basis, since factors such as site geology will vary significantly in different locales. The advantages and disadvantages of each option must be weighed, and each alternative’s costs and energy use must -be evaluated.
