Pull Out Test

This document provides a checklist for conducting pull out tests on rock bolts with instructions for engineers. It outlines the necessary testing setup which includes an independent reference beam to measure displacement, a hydraulic jack to apply load, and load and movement monitoring devices. It specifies calibration requirements and attachment procedures. Loading should follow standard procedures and be monitored through multiple readings. Records of readings, load levels, displacements and other details must be documented and signed by engineers.

TESTING SETUP
Independent Reference Beam (IRB) [distance, rigid, IRB legs
shall be firmly installed, not too close to the anchor head
(minimum distance 1.0m)]
Hydraulic Jack:
i)
Calibration:
ii) Serial no.:
iii) Technical Specs:
iv) Ram Area:
No compressible material between the hydraulic jack and the
anchor head
The seating preparation for the hydraulic jack shall be directly
contacted on the rock surface. [If concrete is used as the seating
platform, the concrete shall achieve enough required strength as
the rock].
The contact face should be even and perpendicular to the bolt.
