Abstract
Compressibility of disturbed-structure strong rocks is determined for predicting land subsidence and stability during operation of transport machines. The plate-bearing tests are carried out on a large bench tester at different normal pressures and different densities of strong overburden rocks. The method to estimate deformability of strong overburden rocks using a plate and a station rod is described. The results were used to assess passability of transport machines during damming and for the damp stability calculation.
