<p>The load transfer mechanism of fully grouted cable bolts plays an important role in the performance of cable reinforcement systems. In order to better understand this behaviour, researchers have utilised a number of approaches including theoretical analysis, ...

<p>This paper deals with fully grouted rockbolts, both for mining and civil engineering applications. Their mechanical behavior under tensile loads is reviewed theoretically and experimentally. As for the theoretical part, a new solution able to predict the ...

This paper describes recent studies using short encapsulation pull tests in the U.S. The study found that the SEPT can be used to make a simple evaluation of resin bolt anchorage. Suggested procedures for conducting SEPT are included. The study also confirmed ...
