Abstract:
Based on the idea of discretization and the force balance analysis of each mass spring element, a spring-element analysis method for bolt is proposed. By analyzing the mechanical behavior of the bond interface of the fully grouted bolt, three coupling models of the bond interface, the slider model, the spring model and the spring-slider model, are proposed. Using the spring-element method, five load transfer models, namely the slider model, the spring model, the modified spring model, the spring-pulled slider model, and the spring-slider model, were deduced. And get the bolt displacement distribution function, axial force distribution function and shear stress distribution function under each model. The five proposed models are verified, analyzed and discussed by using the pull-out test of the smooth steel bolt and the threaded steel bolt. It is verified by experiments that this study is helpful to comprehensively understand the mechanical behavior of fully grouted bolts under axial load. The proposed spring element analysis method is simple and easy to understand and the results are reasonable.
