Deep coal mining requires grouting to reinforce the coal rock walls. The conventional polymer-modified cement-based grouting materials have improved toughness but poor fluidity. The purpose of this paper was to improve the injectability of grout. The pre...

Traditionally, flexural testing of prismatic beams is used to characterize the strength and behavior in post - cracking regime of fiber - reinforced concretes (FRC). These tests exhibit a high dispersion in their results, and therefore invalidate the use...
