IN-SITU PULL TESTING OF A YIELDABLE ROCK BOLT, ROOFEX
A recently introduced yielding rock bolt, trade name Roofex, appears to have the required energy absorbing component of a dynamic support system. According to the manufacturers specification, the Roofex bolts can yield 300 mm (or more) displacement while holding 80 kN pull load. In order to assess the performance of this support unit in situ, particularly in coal ribs, a series of in situ pull tests performed in one hard rock and two coal mines. The results show that, under conventional pull test loading conditions, Roofex yielding bolts perform very close to their claimed specifications., thus showing a potential for their use as the main energy absorbing component of a dynamic support system. Further studies are required to confirm the in situ performance of these bolts under dynamic loading conditions.
