It offers the combined advantages of an immediate point anchorage and subsequently a fully grouted rock bolt. A two-step installation procedure allows fast installation and immediate anchorage, separate and independent grouting provides flexibility in regard to working cycles. Due to the controlled grouting procedure and different bar coatings available, the CT-Bolt TM is a reliable ground control system for underground applications. The working ability of the CT-Bolt TM has been proven throughout various underground construction projects; the system has become a standard in today s state-of-the-art ground control procedures. 3

4 Fields of Application Systematic permanent reinforcement of underground excavations Ground support for areas with limited or no access during operational lifetime Permanent roadways and excavations Hydropower and underground oil or gas storage caverns Sub-sea and sewer tunnels Main Advantages Efficient, practically proven, and reliable rock reinforcement system Combination of an immediate point anchorage and a fully grouted rock bolt Immediate load-bearing capacity after installation by the mechanical anchor Fast installation and flexible postgrouting behind the working face Double corrosion protection due to a polyethylene sleeve and grout coverage Easy adjustment of the corrosion protection level to customer demands Semi-automated or manual installation procedure System Description Combination rock bolt Immediate point anchorage by activation of an expansion shell anchor Post-grouting assembly features double corrosion protection 4

5 System Components Polyethylene sleeve Corrugated, with inner centralizers Dome-shaped grouting adapter With grouting hole and welded-on sleeve Nut Expansion shell Plate Incl. bore for grout discharge Rebar rock bolt Cold rolled threads on both sides for mounting expansion shell and nut Specifications Characteristic Value / Type Unit CT-M20 CT-M22 Outer rebar diameter [mm] Thread designation [mm] M20 M22 Characteristic yield load 1) [kn] Characteristic ultimate load 1) [kn] Borehole diameter range 2) [mm] Delivery lengths 3) [m] ) After grouting 2) Expansion shells for larger borehole diameters available upon request 3) Delivery lengths up to 8.0 m are available upon request 5

6 Installation Procedure Borehole drilling Drilling of a borehole: Ø mm Recommended borehole length: about 100 mm longer than the bolt length Bolt installation Insertion of the assembled CT-Bolt into the pre-drilled borehole Pressing the bolt plate firmly against the excavation surface Activation of the expansion anchor by pre-stressing of the anchor nut provides immediate point anchorage Typical required torque: Nm Flexible bolt grouting Preparation of cement grout according the given specifications Connection of an injection adapter to the grouting adapter of the CT-Bolt Primary grout flow inside the sleeve towards the bolt s toe (expansion shell) - complete grout coverage of the rebar Secondary grout flow outside the sleeve until the grouting medium flows out at the bore for grout discharge at the hemispherical bolt plate Further References Load indicators and rock bolt testing equipment available upon request Technical Features Combination rock bolt Active reinforcement by pre-stressing of the expansion anchor Allowance of a certain amount of elastic deformation of the rebar induced by displacements of the rock mass Flexible grouting behind the working face allows an optimum adoption of the CT-Bolt to given ground and operating conditions Optimum alignment and assurance of complete grout coverage of the rock bolt by the polyethylene sleeve Unique choice of the corrosion protection level Protection of the components of the CT-Bolt according to given levels of corrosive environments Bolts are available black, hot dip galvanised, or with a special Combi Coat (combination of hotdip galvanizing, zinc phosphate, and powder coating) Indicated lifetimes for load-bearing components of the fully-grouted CT-Bolt by accelerated corrosion tests performed by Vik Ørsta AS from 50 (black type) to 150 (Combi Coat type) years 6
