The headboard includes a chock assembly which is composed of parallel, elongate timber chocks (14). A steel reinforcement sheet is secured to and extends over the support surface of the chock assembly to provide tensile reinforcement a grout bag is placed on the headboard and is inflated with grout under pressure sufficient to apply a compressive axial force to the prop between the hanging wall and the footwall.
