Sinopsis
Master the design of mine structures with this authoritative reference. This comprehensive guide covers the full range of mine buildings, from head works and head frames to coal tipples, rock houses, and shaft houses. Rich with data, calculations, and worked examples, it helps engineers plan safe, efficient, cost‑effective facilities for mining operations.
The book combines theory and practice, showing how to evaluate loads, calculate stresses, and design steel, timber, and concrete structures. It explains methods for simple and indeterminate frames, discusses wind and snow effects, and provides detailed specifications and data you can apply directly to real projects. Although written for professional engineers, the text is accessible to students who have completed a course in applied mechanics and statics.
- Learn the types and roles of head works, including head frames, rock houses, and coal tipples.
- Understand how to analyze stresses in simple and statically indeterminate frames.
- Explore the design of mine buildings, roof trusses, frames, foundations, and related components.
- Access practical specifications, data, and worked examples to inform real‑world projects.
Ideal for engineers, construction professionals, and students involved in mine design and the structural aspects of mining operations.

Excerpt from The Design of Mine Structures
The aim in writing this book has been to present a systematic dis cassion of the design of mine structures. While the design of head works for mines is given the principal place, the design of buildings, bins, coal washers and breakers, etc., is discussed as fully as the limited space permits. In the design of mine structures it is necessary that the structural engineer be familiar with the operation of mines and with various preparatory processes for ore and coal. The discussion of the operation of mines has been limited to the purpose of the structural engineer, and the design of hoists and other machinery has not been considered.

Excerpt from The Design of Mine Structures
A brief re'sumé of the design of reinforced concrete structures is given in Appendix III. Specifications are given for steel, timber and concrete mine structures, and data and details are given for use in design. The subject of costs has been given considerable attention and numerous examples of actual structures have been described in detail.
While this book is supplementary to the author's The Design of Steel Mill Buildings and The Design of Walls, Bins and Grain Elevators, it is self contained.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a structured study of the design of structures used in underground mining operations, with a particular focus on head frames. These frames are vital for hoisting ore and coal and for supporting various preparatory processes. The design of these structures requires knowledge of the mining operation, hoisting methods, and treatment of materials. As such, the book begins with an overview of mining and hoisting systems before moving into the calculation of stresses in simple head frames and statically indeterminate head frames. Design of head frames and other structures such as coal tipples is discussed, along with details of their construction and cost. This book not only compiles years of experience in the field of mine structure design but also serves as a useful supplement to the author's previous publications on steel mill design and the design of retaining walls and grain elevators. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781332778102_0
