ABSTRACT
The mechanism of quasi-plastic joint formation and operation, on our opinion, is presented by following (Figure 2). During the bending of rock layer
of the zone I with thickness Im1 its neutral axe NX moves towards to the activity of compression
stresses Ix by the reason of objectively excess of rock deformation modulus on compression and modulus of deformation on tension. On a site 20 Y
stresses Ix are absent as a result of fracture forma-
tion; on a site 10 Y compression stresses I x , dis-
tributed according to the law, closing to linear (Pysarenko 1979) along coordinate Y , with maximum
