The effects of reinforcement system on pillars were tested in laboratory, using three types of pillars with different strengths. The tests were performed using the UCS machine, to test pillar without reinforcement, pillar with rock bolt reinforcement, pillar with shotcrete reinforcement and pillar with the combination of both rock bolt and shotcrete reinforcement. Uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) testing aims to determine the effects of the reinforcement system on pillar strength. The results of this study indicate that the reinforcement system on high strength pillars causes a strength increase of 14.93% on pillar with rock bolt reinforcement, 21.45% on pillar with shotcrete reinforcement and 34.67% on pillar with combination of rock bolt and shotcrete reinforcement. On medium strength pillars, reinforcement installation shows a strength increase of 16.27% on pillar with reinforced rock bolt, 19.83% on pillar with reinforced shotcrete and 44.40% on pillar with combination of rock bolt and shotcrete reinforcement. Likewise, on low strength pillars, reinforcement installation causes a strength increase of 13.13% on pillar with reinforced rock bolt, 36.21% on pillar with reinforced shotcrete and 53.85% on pillar with combination of rock bolt and shotcrete reinforcement. The results of laboratory testing and numerical modeling indicate that the increase in strength occurs because the horizontal displacement on the surface of the pillar wall is detained by shotcrete and faceplate on rock bolt, so that the pillar seems to have confining pressure throughout the pillar wall surface, which is called as equivalent confining pressure.
