... Abstract The failure behaviour of a plaster beam when coated with a thin layer of polymeric liner was studied both experimentally and numerically. Plaster beams without any liner coating were tested to failure in a four-point bend test scenario and were found to fail in tension at the mid span...

... Abstract Thin Spray-on Liners (TSLs) have been used at a variety of South African mines for ground support reasons to a limited extent. The use and application of TSLs are expected to increase once the end-user (the mines) confidence is built on the TSL performance. This would be achieved...
