Fault Family Table 4.3: Strength parameters assigned to shear families for Case 2. Cohesion (MPa) Friction Angle (º) Geological Description E–W-striking shears 5 35 No seismicity or damage and splays Footwall Shear 0 35 No Seismicity but visible damage SW-striking shears 0 20 Associated seismicity, damage and/or reinforcement necessary The southwest-striking fault system is interpreted to be the weakest (Table 4.3). As found in Case 1, this fault system has the most influence on the stress field; the east-west striking shear zones and the Footwall Shear Zone show little influence. There is little difference between the modelled results for Case 2 and Case 1. Model results can be found in Appendix D. The moderately strong fault condition produces a realistic stress distribution. In both plastic and elastic models, low stresses occur adjacent to the excavation and high stresses (Fig. 4.10) and high differential stresses (Fig. 4.11) align with SW-striking shear zones to the south of the excavation. Right-lateral displacement is induced along the Plum and the Return Air Raise Shear Zones in this area (Fig. 4.12). In the plastic model, damage shows some alignment with the SW-striking shear zones to the south of the excavation (Fig. 4.13).
