Analytical Modelling of Load–Displacement Performance of Cable Bolts Incorporating Cracking Propagation

The application of cable bolts tends to increase in both underground mining operations and civil tunnel excavations have given its outstanding performance to support the excavation surface and hence minimise the hazards and risk of failure in the field. Understanding the mechanical behaviour of cable bolts under axial loading subjected to different field environment from analytical perspective is essential and economic for selecting the most...
