  1. 1. Environmental and technical evaluation of cement reduction and test methods for fibre reinforced shotcrete in tunnels

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Elin Brodd; Lina Östlund; [2022]
    Keywords : Shotcrete; Global Warming Potential; Environmental Product Declaration; Tunnel construction; Fibre reinforcement; Compressive strength; Residual strength; GGBS; Sprutbetong; Klimatpåverkan; Miljövarudeklaration; Tunnelbyggande; Fiberarmering; Tryckhållfasthet; Residualhållfasthet; Granulerad Masugnsslagg;

    Abstract : The dominating support method for hard rock tunnels today is use of fibre reinforced shotcrete in combination with rock bolts. The fibre reinforced shotcrete secures smaller blocks, while rock bolts are used to support larger blocks in the rock. Application of shotcrete is done by spraying against the rock surface using compressed air. READ MORE

  2. 2. Stress dependent flow behavior in sublevel caving mines

    University essay from KTH/Jord- och bergmekanik

    Author : Linde Mattsson; [2022]
    Keywords : level caving; Material Flow; Mining; Discrete element modeling.;

    Abstract : Sublevel caving is an underground mass mining method that utilizes the gravity-induced material flow for ore extraction. The granular flowbehavior is one of the main phenomena describing this mining method’s efficiency; therefore, a good understanding of the flow behavior is essential. READ MORE
