After grouting, the residual bearing capacity of post-peak coal samples recovers to 65~85% of the intact peak strength, significantly enhancing the bearing capacity of fractured coal.
Grouting leads to stable strain softening in the post-peak stage, avoiding sudden instability and improving the ductility of the coal.
The grouting material forms a ductile grid skeleton inside the coal, coordinating deformation and improving the stress state, thereby enhancing post-peak bearing capacity.
