Load transfer model and failure prevention measures of a mechanical-type anchorage for anchor cable in deep roadway

Abstract

In this paper, the load transfer mechanism of a mechanical-type anchorage is analyzed and studied. The stress distribution on the surface of the anchor cable is clarified, and the means of mechanical analysis and Abaqus finite element method are used. Results indicated there is no stress concentration, and the peak value indicated by the anchor cable appears near the loading end, and the peak value is about 60 MPa larger than the tensile strength. The results of the tensile test show that the failure mode of the anchor cable is the necking fracture of the steel wires, which indicates that the steel reaches the yield limit stress. The anchor efficiency of mechanical-type anchorage is high, which can effectively exert the tensile strength of anchor cable. In deep mine roadway, two failure modes of anchor cable are summarized when mechanical-type anchorage is used. Including shear failure and slippage failure under dynamic action. Aiming at the shear failure behavior, a new type of anchorage was invented, including the self-aligning and shear resistance functions of the anchor cable, and an experiment was carried out. Results indicated anti-shear anchorage can effectively solve the problem of anchor cable failure caused by shear. For the problem of anchor cable slippage failure under dynamic action. The parameters affecting the stability of mechanical-type anchorage are analyzed by means of theoretical analysis and numerical simulation. Results indicated reducing the bevel angle of wedge and barrel, the difference angle between them, and increasing the friction coefficient μ between wedge and barrel can increase the stability of mechanical-type anchorage. The research content of this paper can provide reference for the design of mechanical-type anchorage in similar underground engineering.
