Abstract
AbstractThe shear characteristics of bolted rock joints are crucial for the stability of tunneling and mining, particularly in deep underground engineering, where rock bolt materials are exposed to high stress, water pressure, and engineering disturbance. However, due to the complex interaction between bolted rock joints and various geological contexts, many challenges and unsolved problems arise. Therefore, more investigation is needed to understand the shear performance of bolted joints in the field of deep underground engineering. This study presents a comprehensive review of research findings on the responses of bolted joints subjected to shearing under different conditions. As is revealed, the average shear strength of bolted rock joints increases linearly with the normal stress and increases with the compressive strength of rock until it reaches a stable value. The joint roughness coefficient (JRC) affects the contact area, friction force, shear strength, bending angle, and axial force of bolted rock joints. A mathematical function is proposed to model the relationship between JRC, normal load, and shear strength. The normal stress level also influences the deformation model, load‐carrying capacity, and energy absorption ratio of bolts within bolted rock joints, and can be effectively characterized by a two‐phase exponential equation. Additionally, the angle of the bolts affects the ratio of tensile and shear strength of the bolts, as well as the mechanical behavior of both bolted rock joints and surrounding rock, which favors smaller angles. This comprehensive review of experimental data on the shear behavior of bolted rock joints offers valuable theoretical insights for the development of advanced shear devices and further pertinent investigations.
