Experimental research on mechanical performance of grouting plugging material with large amount of fly ash

Abstract

Abstract In order to achieve the purpose of long-term stable mining of roadway, the strength and stability of rock mass are improved by means of grouting of fractured rock mass. In this paper, orthogonal test and numerical simulation methods were used to study the plugging performance of large amount of fly ash grouting slurry. The fluidity, water separation rate, compressive strength, setting time, stone rate and viscosity of the slurry were analyzed, and the optimal slurry ratio scheme was obtained. Under the optimal ratio scheme, the slurry transport process of the fractured rock mass was simulated, and the dynamic evolution law of the permeability of the slurry in the fractured rock mass was obtained. The study shows that the proportions of fly ash, ordinary Portland cement, loess, accelerant, expansion agent, bentonite water reducer and solidifying agent were 52.65%, 27.70%, 13.85%, 3%, 0.7%, 0.8%, 0.6% and 0.7% in the slurry ratio scheme, respectively. The slurry migration in the fractured rock mass experienced three stages, namely the filling and diffusion stage, the percolation and deposition stage and the sealing stage. The initial permeability was 971.9 mD and decreased to 45.79 mD after 1800 s, with a decrease of 95.3%. The slurry sealing performance was significantly improved, which has certain guiding significance for the application of underground grouting reinforcement engineering.
