The present paper is an extension of the companion paper in which the formulation of a new numerical model called the block-spring model for jointed rock mass was presented. The work reported herein presents further investigations of the model which include the simulation of rock bolts for ground support and groundwater pressure. The rock bolts are modelled by a series of one-dimensional elements interacting with the rock blocks through nodal points. The model can be used to analyze both the end-anchored and the fully grouted rock bolts, either pretensioned or untensioned. The model also evaluates the water pressures imposed on the surfaces of the rock blocks which are then introduced into the equilibrium equations of the blocks. Several applications of the proposed model are presented including detailed analyses of two case histories. The numerical results have been compared with the field instrumentation data. Good agreement has been observed between the results of the proposed model and the field measurements in both cases. It is demonstrated that the proposed model can be used for the analysis of excavations in jointed rocks in practice. Key words : jointed rocks, stress, deformation, analysis, numerical model, excavation, anchors, groundwater.
