Major emphasis will be on rock mass conditions, opening shape, selection and evaluation of support systems, effect of mining methods and instrumentation. Students will primarily focus on the hard rock underground mining environment dealing with both structural- and stress-driven opening stability problems and support solutions. Students will utilize available technical software to undertake a variety of practical activities. Open pit support will be covered if time permits.
