Short Course: Empirical Design Methods For Underground Mines
Dr. Rimas Pakalnis’ short course Empirical Design Methods for Underground Mines is being hosted by EduMine this June 10-11 in Vancouver.
This course provides the operators of underground mines with the tools required to make on site pillar and opening stability assessments. Tools for assessing opening stability are provided. Empirical methods for considering the complex interaction of stress, opening geometry, structure and rock mass are provided. Ample time is given for solving stability problems and participants are strongly encouraged to bring case histories or questions from their own operations. Case history data should include stope or pillar geometry, depth, estimated stress levels as well a description of the rock mass.
For more information or to register, see the full course description.
