To make a stockpile is not just about accumulating material... When starting the stockpile, you must take into account the smooth ramp to prevent the truck from exerting too much effort when climbing the unloading ramp, this prevents wear and tear on equipment parts; The width of the ramp must be 3 to 4 times the width of the largest transport equipment; You have to make safety barriers on the sides. These are basic procedures when starting a Stockpile. "Being a mining engineer also means worrying about the safety of operations." #MININGEngineer #Stockpile #Mozambique #Safetyfirst
Also to keep on checking the relationship between angle of draw and angle of repose on stockpiles
