Mechanical performance of rock bolts under combined load conditions

Rock bolts are subjected to different loading conditions along their lengths such as axial, bending, and/or shear forces, which can cause failure at lower loads than those considered for design purposes. The common existing methodologies do not consider the actual loading of the rock bolts and assum...
