Purpose and Background

This presentation covers key aspects of mine subsidence engineering, a subject that is not well understood, and embraces a number of engineering disciplines. It goes through the structural response of foundations and the nature of subsidence ground movements. It also discusses about the ground and structural mitigation alternatives.

Benefits and Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this course, you will be able to:

• Explain mine stability and the nature of the existing mine conditions
• Characterize structural response of the foundation, as well as structural and architectural response of the structures
• Identify specific nature of the subsidence ground movement and the foundation loading
• Identify ground and structural mitigation alternatives

Assessment of Learning Outcomes

Students' achievement of the learning outcomes will be assessed via a short post-assessment (true-false, multiple choice and fill in the blank questions).

Who Should Attend?

Civil Engineers, Architects, Land Developers

Outline

• Mine stability and mine conditions
• Structural response of the foundation
• Structural and architectural response of the structures
