ABSTRACT:
A method of providing roof support by the use of prestressed support members. Sequentially the method calls for the drilling of a series of generally parallel holes in a mine roof such that they extend from one underground cavity to another; inserting support members like metal cables or rods into each of these holes to extend completely through the hole's entire length between the cavities; pretensioning each of said supports; forcing a liquid binder around the supports while in their holes; and releasing the forces on the supports after the binder has become cured by solidifying.
