Mining | Cracks developing from the upper or tension side of a stratum caused by bending moment over a coal seam. Such breaks are induced in the nether roof in consequence of the moment exercised by the weight of the roof-stratum overhanging the face, cantilever fashion. The weight break differs from a shear plane in the more ragged and uneven character of the fracture and in hanging over the waste instead of over the unmined coalseam. Also called first break.
