In the Liu.Pan.Shui. coal field, Guizhou Province, China, 35°∼60° steeply inclined coal seams are widely distributed, and the coal resources present are of high quality and are mostly coking coal. However, because the roof overlying rock structure is affected by the geological conditions at a large dip angle, the combined cantilever beam structure of the overlying rock near the working face and the overlying rock masonry beam structure in front of the working face have different migration laws from when the condition of the near-level coal seam is generated. The pressure has emerged with new characteristics, posing a threat to coal mine production safety. Therefore, by establishing a mechanical model of roof overlying rock structure in accordance with the characteristics of coal seam inclination, mining height, and goaf overlap in the Liu.Pan.Shui mining area and using the analytical formula of material mechanics to calculate the behavior of rock pressure, guide the roof weakening means, construction technology, and parameters. It is used to quantitatively control the transportation load of the overlying rock on the roof of the large inclination coal seam and realize the safe and efficient mining of the precious coal resources of the Liu.Pan.Shui coal field.
