Question:
Out of the support categories given for an underground coal mine, identify the “active support”
Out of the support categories given for an underground coal mine, identify the “active support”
Show Hint
Active supports resist load by yielding or movement; hydraulic props are an example.

- Wire mesh
- Shotcrete
- Fully grouted roof bolt
- Hydraulic prop
Show Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Hydraulic props are active supports because they provide support by actively resisting load during roof movement in mines.
