Study of Bearing Characteristics and Damage Law of Grouting-Reinforced Bodies

Abstract

To explore solutions for reinforcement problems of broken rock masses in deep roadways, it is necessary to study the performance of cement-based grout and its reinforcement effect. In this study, grouting-reinforced specimens with different particle sizes of broken coal were made, which revealed the reinforcement effect of grouting on the bearing capacity of broken coal and the mechanism for secondary bearing damage and the instability of the reinforced specimens. First, it was determined that the appropriate water–cement ratio (W/C) to meet the field grouting conditions is 0.45. Second, the uniaxial compression of the grouting-reinforced specimens with 0.45 W/C was carried out, and acoustic emission equipment was used to detect it. Finally, through indoor experiments, this study investigated the differences in failure modes, stress–strain curves, and acoustic emission signal characteristics among intact coal samples, grouting-reinforced bodies with different particle sizes, and grouting-reinforced bodies after anchoring. The deformation and failure patterns of grouting-reinforced bodies were revealed, and the failure mechanisms of grouting-reinforced bodies with different particle sizes were elucidated.
