DYNAMIC TESTING OF FRICTION ROCK STABILISERS (2009)
An extensive axial test program has been used to quantify the difference between the static and dynamic capacities (kN/m of embedment) for friction rock stabilisers once sliding starts. Rough simulated boreholes have been developed for the installation and ...

DYNAMIC TESTING OF REINFORCEMENT SYSTEMS (2008)
A systematic program of testing of different reinforcement systems has been undertaken since 2004. Potentiometers, load cells, accelerometers and high speed video are used to monitor the tests. Software has been developed to analyse the data. The results from ...

STATIC AND DYNAMIC TESTING OF STEEL WIRE MESH FOR MINING APPLICATIONS OF ROCK SURFACE SUPPORT (2008)
Wire mesh has been used for surface ground support in mining since the 1950s. Experimental studies have been conducted throughout the world. The response of the mesh is dependant on the sample size, the boundary restraint systems and the loading conditions. ...

DYNAMIC TESTING OF ROCK REINFORCEMENT SYSTEMS (2005)
A new dynamic test facility has been established by the Western Australian School of Mines in Kalgoorlie. The facility uses the principle of ‘momentum transfer’ to dynamically load rock reinforcement systems and assess their suitability for use in rock burst ...
