Advances in Rock-Support and Geotechnical Engineering

Advances in Rock-Support and Geotechnical Engineering summarizes and enriches the latest research results on the theory of rock mechanics, analytical methods, innovative technologies and its applications in practical engineering. This book is divided into 6 sections: rock tests, rock bolting, grouted anchor, tunneling engineering, slope engineering and mining engineering. Coverage includes fracture hinged arching process and instability characteristics of rock plates, failure modes of rock bolting, scale effects and loading transfer mechanism of the grouted anchor. Also covered are recent innovations and applications in tunneling engineering, slope engineering and mining engineering. This book provides innovative, practical and rich content, which can be used as a valuable reference for researchers undertaking tunneling engineering, slope engineering, mining engineering and rock mechanics, teachers and students in the related universities, as well as on-site technical persons. Enriches new theory of failure modes of rock plates, rock bolting mechanism and anchor loading transferDevelops new methods of evaluating the stability of the slope engineering and the roof stability of the mined-out areasProvides innovated new technologies for soft rock supporting in the tunneling engineering and surface mining
