7、8-9:1974 ii BSI 11-1999 Foreword This glossary has been prepared, under the authority of the Mining and Quarrying Requisites Industry Standards Committee, in order to standardize and to co-ordinate the technical terms in current use in mining in the United Kingdom. Although the majority of the terms
8、 defined in the original edition of this glossary were primarily concerned with coal mining, account has been taken of terms used in other forms of mining and of quarrying. The need for this glossary arose from the widely varying interpretation of terms used within the industry, and the prevalent us
9、e of more than one synonym, some purely local in origin, to indicate specific meanings. The glossary has been issued in a number of sections, according to subject matter, as follows. Section1: Planning and surveying; Section2: Ventilation; Section3: Boring and exploration; Section4: Drainage; Sectio
10、n5: Geology; Section6: Drilling and blasting; Section7: Electrical engineering and lighting; Section8: Winning and working; Section9: Shafts and associated equipment; Section10: Transport; Section11: Strata control. In the normal process of periodical review of the BS3618 publications it was seen th
11、at a number of modifications were desirable to Section9 “Shafts and associated equipment”; therefore, since the initial edition was dated1967, it was decided to publish a revision incorporating these changes. In compiling the glossary account has been taken of the fact that terms primarily associate
12、d with coal are separately defined in BS3323 “Glossary of coal terms”, and terms relating to coal preparation are defined in BS3552 “Glossary of terms used in coal preparation”. The following factors also have applied in the statement, selection and definition of terms. a) Where two or more terms ar
13、e grouped together, the term which is favoured is printed first and in heavy type. It is hoped that such preferred terms will gradually displace the non-preferred terms. The non-preferred terms of a group are printed in smaller type. Where the use of any term is considered to be undesirable it is ma
14、rked deprecated. b) Generally, only terms which have a specific meaning in this field have been included. Where a technical term has an accepted meaning in other fields of engineering it has been omitted; the few exceptions are terms which are of particular importance in mining. c) Purely local term
15、s are not defined, but those of sufficient importance are included as non-preferred terms. d) Obsolete terms are excluded.BS3618-9:1974 BSI 11-1999 iii A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their corr
