Pull-out tests on grouted cable bolt anchors are simulated with FLAC. Grout is represented as a cohesive and frictional material with confining stress dependence. Results are presented as axial force–deflection curves.

Keywords:

  • Cable bolt
  • Pull test curve
  • Grout shear stiffness
  • Ultimate bond strength
  • Confining stress
  • Bond failure

Materials:

  • Rock
  • Steel

Analyses:

  • Static
