Usually, the pullout test output is only the load-displacement curve. This paper discusses how to use this curve to determine the bolt-grout-rock interaction. For modeling bolt-grout interface behavior, coupling (compete for bonding), partial decoupling, decoupling with the residual shear strength, and complete decoupling have been considered. With increasing the applied load, two possible cases including complete pullout and bolt shank yielding are considered. Based on experimental results, a model for the shear stress along a fully grouted bolt is assumed. According to this model, the distribution of axial stress in the bolt and displacement of the bolt head is determined. It is also assumed that the bolt is sufficiently long, which is usually used in underground excavations. Based on the presented analytical method, the bolt head load-displacement curve is determined by assuming input parameters. This curve is compared with a pullout test result. %U https://ceej.aut.ac.ir/article_3657_5c1e2ebf88b2da703c72daf14691cda9.pdf
