This paper describes the selection, design, and construction of a yielding support for the arch of the generator hall of the Rogun hydroelectric station which provides reliable roof support under conditions of large tectonic stresses. Compared with more technologically efficient rigid structures, the proposed structure makes it possible to obtain a technical-economic effect due to a reduction of the volume of works on rock excavation and underground reinforced concrete because of an allowed reduction in the thickness of the arch.
