Underground coal mining disturbs both the overburden strata and the
immediate floor strata. The subject of surface subsidence deals
with the issues associated with the movement of overburden strata,
which are the layers from the seam to the surface, where structures
and water resources important to human activities are located.
Surface Subsidence Engineering provides comprehensive coverage of
the major issues associated with surface subsidence. The chapters
are written by experts on surface subsidence in the three leading
coal producing and consuming countries in the world: Australia,
China and the United States. They discuss general features and
terminologies, subsidence prediction, subsidence measurement
techniques, subsidence impact on water bodies, subsidence damage,
mitigation and control, and subsidence on abandoned coal mines. In
addition, the final chapter addresses some of the unique features
of surface subsidence found in Australian coal mines. The book
provides information on coal seams ranging from flat to gently
inclined to steep to ultra-steep seams. Written for mining
engineers, geotechnical engineers and students of mining
engineering, this book covers both theories and practices of
surface subsidence. Unlike previous publications, it also deals
with the subsidence impact on surface and groundwater bodies,
crucial resources that are often neglected by subsidence
researchers.
