Analytical large deformation shear strength for bolted rough discontinuous rock

【Abstract】 Presented a new analytical model for studying the shear-tensile large deforma-tion behavior near the vicinity of joint interface for bolted rough discontinuous rock, and presented the formulation estimating global shear strength for bolted joints under shear-ing-tensile loads. The analytical strength curves of bolts contribution on reinforced discon-tinuous rocks as the function of joint displacements or deformation angle of a bolt at rock joints was obtained. Based on Barton’s equation on JRC roughness profiles, the theoreti-cal shearing strength of bolted rough joints was also established. Test results on bolted granite and marble specimen confirm the validity of the analytical approach.更多还原
