A mine roof support comprises a plurality of hydraulically extensible chock legs articulated at upper ends thereof to one or more roof beams and at lower ends thereof to one or more base members, a shield pivotally connected to a rearward part of the base member(s) and also pivotally connected to a rearward part of the roof beam(s) with a permanently loaded force applying means reacting via the shield on the roof beam(s), in such a manner that the force applying means resists displacement of the roof beam(s) and, upon a sufficient fall in pressure in the chock legs, restores any displaced chock legs to a predetermined position.
