Rock bolts are widely used in tunnels, underground openings, and also rock slopes to provide support and attach blocks to therock mass in various engineering fields. They have a significant role for the stability of underground structures and natural rock slopes bothin the mining and civil engineering industry. The understanding of the rock bolt behavior under stress conditions plays a key role in the longterm stability and sustainability of rock slopes, nearby structures, and underground openings. The detection of the failure type and theinvestigation of failure behavior can be supported by thermal imaging of certain regions on the anchor bolt during tensile testing. In thiscontext, anchor bolt behavior under tensile testing with a force controlled testing environment was analyzed with a LWIR (LongwaveInfrared) thermal camera. The heat dissipation during experiments was recorded by a thermal camera together with the force reading fromthe hydraulic press data logger. As a result of the experiments, it was seen that there is a relation between the temperature change and boltfailure behavior. Therefore, it is expected that this study will provide an opportunity to detect the failure characteristics of the anchor boltsunder tensile strength test by the help of infrared thermal camera.

Failure analysis of thin spray-on liner coated rock cores Öztürk, Hasan (2017-09-01) Thin spray-on liners (TSLs) are surface support materials used in mining and civil engineering projects since 1990s with a wide ranging area of application from bolt/mesh support replacement to pillar reinforcement systems. This study presents the investigation of pillar reinforcement capacity of the TSL coated andesite rock core by compression test to mimic pillar reinforcement effect. The uniaxial compressive strength (UCS), modulus of elasticity (E), and energy absorbance capacity of uncoated and 5 mm co...
Creep modelling study of a surface support liner Güner, Doğukan; Öztürk, Hasan (2018-06-24) Surface supports are widely used in underground excavations. Since conventional surface support liners have inherently-brittle characteristics and require longer curing period, an alternative support system using polymer based surface support liner, thin spray-on liners (TSLs), has been observed to have a promising ductile and fast-curing potential for underground operations. TSLs can exhibit a good performance for highly-stressed, deep, rock bursting conditions as well when used together with rock bolts an...
Experimental investigation of uplift on seismic base isolators / Erkakan, Evren; Caner, Alp; Department of Civil Engineering (2014) Elastomeric rubber bearings reinforced with steel shims, are used to provide structural support in vertical direction and allow horizontal movements for the structure subjected to earthquake and thermal loads. Generally, it is known that tensile stress or uplift may occur when the structure is subjected to strong ground motion or structure have large height-to-width aspect ratio to develop a stability concern subjected to lateral loads. The main focus of this research is to investigate the change in charact...
State of the art in roller compacted concrete (RCC) dams: design and construction Söğüt, Serdar; Arıcı, Yalın; Binici, Barış; Department of Civil Engineering (2014) Roller Compacted Concrete (RCC) appeared as a feasible new type of construction material for concrete gravity dams. RCC became very popular rapidly all over the world due to its low cost and fast deployment and is used for various purposes, including the construction of new dams, pavements, highways and the rehabilitation of existing dams. The primary purpose of this study is to investigate wide range of practice in RCC dam construction with a focus on the material properties. The material properties of a r...
Cyclic Testing of Reinforced Concrete Double Walls ALDEMİR, ALPER; Binici, Barış; Canbay, Erdem (2017-03-01) Reinforced concrete double walls are semi-precast structural elements constructed with factory-produced concrete shells on two exterior sides and cast-in-place concrete in the middle of the section. Their use has been limited in seismic zones due to the difficulty of connecting the adjacent double walls for monolithic action, and providing suitable seismic details in the presence of the lattice girder that is used to hold the concrete shells together. These limitations were overcome with the invention of di...
