Abstract.

During the studies, changes of the strength characteristics of the steel arch supports were considered in terms of  their long-term operation in aggressive environment in the mine.

Efficiency of the steel used for supporting the roadways is significantly reduced because of the corrosive properties. Aggressive mine and underground water, water-saturated environment, presence of stray currents and intensive ventilation in the tunnels contribute to occurrence of oxidation processes in the steel. The result is a fast, for 7 - 10 years, failure of the steel supports. With the help of the software and computer complex, a three-dimensional model was built for studying steel arch supports in the mines.  The data used in the study were correlated with geological conditions of the Kryvyy-Rig ore field.

The findings have shown that stresses in the arch are directly proportional to the rate of corrosion and operation life of the supports. Basing on the study results, the dependence diagrams were built which have made possible to choose an optimal profile for the supports according to the specified requirements.

Keywords:
