Anchoring mechanism and application of hydraulic expansion bolts used in soft rock roadway floor heave control

Comparing with the resin bolt, the hydraulic expansion bolt has different anchoring mechanism and application advantage. According to the working mechanism of the hydraulic expansion bolt, its anchoring force is expressed in four forms including support anchoring force, tension anchoring force, expansion anchoring force and tangent anchoring force, and their values can be obtained on the basis of each calculation formula. Among them, the expansion anchoring force, which is the unique anchoring force of the hydraulic expansion bolt, can provide confining pressure to increase the strength of rock. Aiming at solving the problem of stability control in the soft rock roadway in Jinbaotun Coal Mine which has a double layer of 40 U-type sheds and cannot provide enough resistance support to control floor heave, the study reveals the mechanism of floor heave in the soft rock roadway, and designs the reasonable support parameters of the hydraulic expansion bolts. The observed results of floor convergence indicate that the hydraulic expansion bolts can prevent the development and flow of the plastic zone in the floor rock to control floor heave. Research results enrich the control technology in the soft rock roadway.

Parameter analysis of anchor bolt support for large-span and jointed rock mass

In order to obtain the optimal parameters of anchor bolt supporting system for large-span and jointed rock mass in Kaiyang Phosphor Mine, it is expensive and unavailable with the method of in-situ experiments. This paper describes a numerical modeling with discrete element method for the supporting effects of different type of anchor bolts. The anchor bolts with variant length of 0.5m, 0.8m, 1.0m, diameter of 10mm, 15mm, 20mm, setting spacing of 3.0m, 2.5m, 2.0m, and setting angle of 10°, 20°, 30°, are simulated respectively. The results show that there exist optimal parameters of anchor bolt support for large-span and jointed rock mass. For the bolt support of the concerning, the optimal length is 2.53.5m, the diameter is 2535mm, the spacing is 0.50.6m, and the setting angle is 105°.

Hydrogeochemical modelling of corrosive environment contributing to premature failure of anchor bolts in underground coal mines

Anchor bolts are commonly used throughout underground mining and tunnelling operations to improve roof stability.However,premature failures of anchor bolts are significant safety risks in underground excavations around the world due to susceptible bolt materials,a moist and corrosive environment and tensile stress.In this paper,laboratory experiments and hydrogeochemical models were combined to investigate anchor bolt corrosion and failure associated with aqueous environments in underground coal mines.Experimental data and collated mine water chemistry data were used to simulate bolt corrosion reactions with groundwater and rock materials with the PHREEQC code.A series of models quantified reactions involving iron and carbon under aerobic and anaerobic conditions in comparison with ion,pH and pE trends in experimental data.The models showed that corrosion processes are inhibited by some natural environmental factors,because dissolved oxygen would cause more iron from the bolts to oxidize into solution.These interdisciplinary insights into corrosion failure of underground anchor bolts confirm that environmental factors are important contributors to stress corrosion cracking.

Vibration Characteristic of Anchoring System of Bolt and Elastic Wave Propagation Law

Based on one-dimension wave theory, the propagation law of elastic wave along the rock bolt, rock medium and their coupling system are researched, and the attenuation law and propagation mechanism of wave in the anchoring system are obtained. Meanwhile, the studies on end reflection and dynamic response under load are also carried out experimentally, the relationship between anchoring length and excited wave length is obtained when the end reflection of holt emerges, and it is concluded that under the condition of bolt loaded, as the load increases, the reflection of the upper interface of anchoring segment weakens while the end reflection strengthens relatively, hence the energy attenuation increases. These results provide some important theory basis for measuring the effective anchoring length of bolt, judging the bonding quality of anchoring end and surrounding rock, and estimating the utmost load force of bolt.

Prediction of a maximum pull-out load of anchor bolts using an optimal combination model

The mixed model of improved exponential and power function and unequal interval gray GM(1,1)model have poor accuracy in predicting the maximum pull-out load of anchor bolts.An optimal combination model was derived using the optimally weighted combination theory and the minimum sum of logarithmic squared errors as the objective function.Two typical anchor bolt pull-out engineering cases were selected to compare the performance of the proposed model with those of existing ones.Results showed that the optimal combination model was suitable not only for the slow P-s curve but also for the steep P-s curve.Its accuracy and stable reliability,as well as its prediction capability classification,were better than those of the other prediction models.Therefore,the optimal combination model is an effective processing method for predicting the maximum pull-out load of anchor bolts according to measured data.

Anchorage Performance and Interfacial Mechanics Transfer Characteristics of a Composite Anchor Bolt with Different Surface Shape

To solve the deficiency of steel anchor blot in corrosion resistance and flaw of GFRP anchor bolt in fracture resistance, our research group develops a new composite anchor bolt made of steel strands wrapped up with compound fiber resin. To improve the cohesion performance of the composite anchor bolt, pull-out tests of different composite anchor bolts with different groove intervals and depths were made and analyzed. The results show that the pulling resistance of the composite anchor bolt increases with the increase of groove interval and depth, but groove interval and depth have optimal value. Based on elastic mechanics, the cohesion between anchor bolts and anchor bodies and its distribution characteristics caused by axial tension are analyzed and cohesion formula is obtained. By contrast, the experimental result is consistent with the theoretical analysis. Therefore, the surficial change of anchor colts could influence the performance of the composite anchor bolt. The cohesion force and anchorage performance can be improved by changing the surface of anchor bolts. Research results show that the new composite anchor bolt is high-performance material in the civil engineering.

Analysis on the anchor mechanism of the full length resin bolt

The purpose of this paper is to reveal the stress distribution characteristic along the full length anchor bolt.

The stress distribution characteristic is different according to different type of surrounding rock. The conclusion is important to optimize the roadway bolt support design.

Test and application of hydraulic expansion bolts in a roadway under goaf with ultra-close separation

The roof of a roadway under goal with ultra-close separation consists of thin rock strata and rocks caving in upper goal. Influenced by the mining of the upper coal seam, the roof is loose and broken, and its integ- rity is poor. Resin anchored bolts cannot provide an effective anchoring force in such roof conditions. By conducting free expansion tests and field pull-out tests on a hydraulic expansion bolt, this study has ana- lyzed the influencing factors and laws of radial expansion and anchoring force changes in the rod body. This has revealed the anchoring mechanism of such bolts, and has obtained reasonable water injection pressures and suitable drilling diameters （which are 20-25 MPa and 32-35 mm respectively） for the hydraulic expansion bolt （cR28 mm） used in these tests. Based on pull-out tests at different interlayer spacing, the applicability of hydraulic expansion bolts had been verified for controlling the roof of road- ways under goal with ultra-close distance. Combined with the deformation and failure characteristics of the test roadway roof, this paper proposes a united roof-control technology based on the use of hydraulic expansion bolts and advancing intubation for the roof. Engineering practice indicated that the roof of the test roadway did not generate leaking and caving phenomenon, and the amount of roof deformation was controlled to within 150 mm. Maintenance of the roadway roof has been improved significantly, which ensures safe mining in coal seams with ultra-close separation.

Testing and modeling of cyclically loaded rock anchors

The Norwegian Public Roads Administration(NPRA) is planning for an upgrade of the E39 highway route at the westcoast of Norway. Fixed links shall replace ferries at seven fjord crossings. Wide spans and large depths at the crossings combined with challenging subsea topography and environmental loads call for an extension of existing practice. A variety of bridge concepts are evaluated in the feasibility study. The structures will experience significant loads from deadweight, traffic and environment. Anchoring of these forces is thus one of the challenges met in the project. Large-size subsea rock anchors are considered a viable alternative. These can be used for anchoring of floating structures but also with the purpose of increasing capacity of fixed structures. This paper presents first a thorough study of factors affecting rock anchor bond capacity. Laboratory testing of rock anchors subjected to cyclic loading is thereafter presented. Finally, the paper presents a model predicting the capacity of a rock anchor segment, in terms of a ribbed bar, subjected to a cyclic load history. The research assumes a failure mode occurring in the interface between the rock anchor and the surrounding grout. The constitutive behavior of the bonding interface is investigated for anchors subjected to cyclic one-way tensile loads. The model utilizes the static bond capacity curve as a basis, defining the ultimate bond sbuand the slip s1 at τ. A limited number of input parameters are required to apply the model. The model defines the bond-slip behavior with the belonging rock anchor capacity depending on the cyclic load level(τcy/τ), the cyclic load ratio(R= τcy/τcy), and the number of load cycles(N). The constitutive model is intended to model short anchor lengths representing an incremental length of a complete rock anchor.

锚固孔扩孔锚固作为增强锚杆(索)对煤矿软弱围岩巷道支护效果的技术举措,对提升煤矿软弱围岩巷道主动支护质量及安全水平发挥了重要作用,然而,扩孔施工也明显增大了扩孔位置锚固孔的尺寸,导致按照锚杆(索)常规树脂锚固施工方式进行施工时扩孔区锚固剂固化及充填效果不理想等问题,显然这不利于锚固孔扩孔锚固性能的充分发挥。为明晰锚固孔扩孔锚固时扩孔区锚固问题及其影响,并寻找有效的解决途径,以确保锚固孔扩孔条件下锚杆(索)的锚固性能,采用数值模拟及实验室实验相结合的方法开展了系统研究。研究结果表明:施工过程中树脂锚固剂弯折(曲)进入扩孔区使锚索无法对它进行有效搅拌及破碎,以及扩孔位置锚固孔体积的增大使得锚固剂不能有效充满,是导致扩孔区锚固问题的主要原因;锚索拉拔模拟结果显示扩孔区锚固缺陷对锚索的锚固性能及锚固系统的失效形式有较大影响;为改善扩孔区的锚固效果,提出了锚固孔底部扩孔区锚固效果保障方法,并实验验证了该方法的有效性,实验结果表明该方法有效确保了软弱围岩锚固孔底部扩孔区的锚固效果,增强了锚索的锚固性能。本研究有效解决了锚固孔扩孔区的锚固问题,有助于煤矿软弱围岩条件下锚索高强支护能力的充分发挥,为确保锚索对软弱围岩巷道支护效果提供了技术途径。

基于声发射的含锚固缺陷节理试样单轴压缩破裂机制研究

锚固缺陷会弱化锚杆对节理岩体的支护效果,为探究锚固缺陷对锚固节理试样的锚固效应,对含不同锚固缺陷的锚固节理试样开展了单轴压缩试验,结合声发射、分布式光纤和DIC监测技术,分析了试样在不同破裂演化阶段时的声发射信息,得到了其破裂前兆特征。研究结果表明:锚固缺陷的存在降低了锚固节理试样的单轴抗压强度、峰值应变和声发射能量释放;在加载后期全长锚固节理试样声发射主频的高、低频信号都出现了增长,锚固缺陷试样主要是声发射主频的高频信号增长,且中间缺陷较端部缺陷会出现更高频段的声发射主频;全长锚固节理试样沿节理发生宏观剪切破坏;中间锚固缺陷试样的锚杆对裂纹控制作用较为迟缓,沿着节理发生宏观拉伸破坏;当锚固缺陷在试样一侧时该侧锚杆的变形大于对称侧,节理尖端的反翼裂纹向锚固缺陷一侧发生偏转并与锚固缺陷贯通,最终导致试样发生失稳破坏。持续高能的声发射能量释放,声发射峰值频率分布主频段增加,峰值频率呈降低趋势,声发射b值整体呈波动降低趋势,可作为试样发生失稳破裂的前兆特征。研究成果可为锚杆在节理裂隙岩体中的支护加固提供参考。
