Abstract This paper designed a special-shaped cross-section hollow self-drilling bolt with discharge grooves, in which Mindlin’s solution of displacement was used the elastic wholly grouted bolt. Theoretically, ultimate pulling force and residual were analyzed by considering average distribution assumption stress. The bolts’ performance 2, 3, 4 grooves compared circular bolts, experimental resu...
