Rock and Soil Mechanics

For the problem that how the grouting reinforcement of a single penetrated structural plane affects the bearing capacity of surrounding rock, an approach of rock samples preparation with single penetrated fracture surface is proposed firstly, and the rock samples are injected with ultrafine cement and epoxy resin, respectively. Then, the strength and deformation characteristics of the consolidated body under uniaxial (triaxial) compression are investigated with the RMT-150C experimental system. Finally, the micro consolidation mechanism of structural plane grouting is revealed using theoretical analysis and electron microscope scanning. It is found that the fracture surface generated under the triaxial loading-unloading condition …

To further improve accuracy and reliability of describing the roughness feature of the structural plane, and more comprehensively reflect influences of the morphological differences, the fluctuation of the profile was decomposed into three principal characteristics: amplitude, inclination, and curvature, which represent the change characteristics of height, angle, and bending of the profile. The data of the three characteristics were obtained by 10 standard profiles established by Barton. And the distribution curves of the three characteristics were analyzed. Then, the power spectral density (PSD), which can well describe the microscopic morphology, was used to analyze the spectral characteristics of amplitude, inclination …
