This paper studies a new composite materials based on carbon fiber-reinforced plastic, which is planned to be used for supporting the preparatory workings when mining the coal at depths of more than 1000 meters. The composite material made of carbon fiber-reinforced plastic has sufficient lt high physical-mechanical properties, which are even higher than that of low-alloy steel used as the main material for supporting in coal mines. The purpose of the research is to substantiate the model of support (arched three-link) and determine its rational parameters. The calculation of the stress-strain state around mine working, using the support made of composite materials, has been perfomed based on the method of finished elements in the Solid Works software product. In addition, a model of the support for coal mines has been developed on a 3D-printer. This made it possible to conduct additional research on the interaction of the support with the rock mass. Using the Solid Works software, a detailed modeling of the composite supporting system has become possible. The stress-strain state of the rock mass has revealed that support can be used to improve the strength characteristics and prevent uneven pressure distribution around mine workings. A support made of composite materials contributes to the introduction of resource-saving technologies in the mining industry.
