Abstract In this paper, according to problems of large deformation, high stress and strong disturbance exist in the retracement roadway during the equipment withdrawal of 18,205 large height mining working face in Xiegou mine. The method of roof cutting and pressure release by deep-hole blasting is put forward. Based on the analysis of the characteristics of different roof cutting depth on the stress and deformation of surrounding rock of the retracement roadway by using Phase numerical simulation software, the optimum roof cutting depth suitable for safe retracting of working face is obtained. The support scheme of retracement roadway of the working face and its cross area with the mining gateway is put forward and realize the safely equipment retreat of the working face. The research results show that the stress of surrounding rock and the development depth of plastic zone as well as the displacement of roof, floor and left side of the retracement roadway are effectively reduced after roof cutting, and the larger of the roof cutting depth, the more obvious the pressure release effect will be. The optimal roof cutting position of the working face is calculated and the monitoring results Y. Guo Shanxi Xishan Jinxing Energy Co., Ltd., Shanxi 033600, People’s Republic of China H.

of mine pressure show that the deformation of the retracement roadway and the cross area of the roadway after cutting off the roof and unloading is small, and the support scheme could effectively control the destruction of the surrounding rock of the retracement roadway.

1 Introduction Equipment withdrawal at the working face is an important process at the closing stage of the working face. The speed of equipment withdrawal will directly affect the production efficiency of coal mining (Liu et al. 2018). Due to the great quantity, large volume and heavy weight of electromechanical equipment, pre-digging mining roadway can significantly increase the speed of Equipment withdrawal at large height mining working face (Zhao et al. 2017; Wang et al. 2016). But with the width of coal pillars between large height mining working face and retracement roadway gradually decreases, the stress on two sides of the coal pillars is concentrated, and the stress on two sides of retracement roadway is asymmetric, which is likely to cause the roof of the retracement roadway to fall and crush the hydraulic support (Xu et al. 2019).
