The primary measure to prevent large area roof weighting is to weaken roof rock mass strength by changing its mechanical condition. At present, the main control technologies are deep-hole blasting, water injection for softening rock mass, and backfilling in the mined-out area [9], [10].Many reports show that deep-hole blasting technology is an effective measure for roof …
