... Abstract The mechanical behaviors of rock joints with and without rock bolt are essential for ensuring the safety of rock engineering and determining support scheme in jointed rock masses. This paper experimentally investigated the shear behavior of unbolted and bolted artificial rough joints...

... ABSTRACT: Rock bolt is one of the major support systems of tunnel engineering. It is used to stabilize suspended rock blocks around an excavation section, reinforce rock mass, and reduce displacement along rock joints. This study proposed a rock bolt model, which includes two parts: a bolt...

... ABSTRACT: New Concept Mining (NCM) has implemented the Dynamic Impact Tester (DIT) to conduct laboratory based dynamic testing on rock bolts. The DIT allows NCM to move rapidly through the R&D cycle for new rock bolts. This allows both a shorter time to market as well as comprehensive...

... ABSTRACT: Fully grouted rock bolts are considered the most economical support system for exposed unsupported rock in various mining operations. The paper presents parametric study of an underground metal mine with the horizontal cut-and-fill method of mining at the depth of 150 meters from...

... Abstract: Three new methods for identifying axial forces in ground anchor or rock bolt are presented. Unlike in traditional methods that rely on the use of an electronic device, such as strain gauges or load cells, these new methods do not use electronic devices for reading data, but instead...

... in underground excavation and the displacements at MPBX nodes were observed for previous numerical model calibration. Time dependent numerical models were designed to take into consideration the effect of jointing using discrete fracture network (DFN) and rock bolts in 3DEC. Sensitivity studies were performed...

In this paper, the authors show the specific content of this system and analyze the results of the evaluation in detail...

... Abstract The construction of some civil and mining structures requires the installation of rock bolt to strengthen, consolidate and stabilize the rock-rock, rock-concrete or concrete-concrete interfaces. In this paper, an experimental study was put on to validate non-destructive methods...

... Abstract Computer modeling can be used to explore and gain new insights into the impacts of rock bolt intersecting joints in rock masses, and to estimate the effectiveness of the rock reinforcement system. In order to achieve this goal, numerical simulation was performed using FLAC3D...

... polymer (FRP) rock bolts and shotcrete lining. The ground support was also simulated, and ground support properties are presented in Tables 2a-b. Major joint sets, obtained from underground mapping, were incorporated into the baseline model. The C-Y model, used to simulate the joints, was selected...

... Abstract The shear loading performance of fully grouted rock bolts is presented. A new experimental method, two types of rock bolts (D-Bolt and rebar), joint gap opening effect, and three types of host rock material were conducted. The bolts have similar loading capacity whilst the loading...

... Abstract A rock bolt represents the most important element in ensuring stability of rock mass excavations. This paper presents weaknesses and strengths of methods which deal with evaluation of rock bolts. Most widely used is pull-out test, conducted for capacity determination in destructive...
