Rock quality designation (RQD) and permeability coefficient are important reference indexes for grouting application. Based on the readily available RQD, RQD is found to have no relationship with the depth of rock stratum, and a method for calculating the mean RQD (RQD_m) of long stratum is proposed, which is applied to the calculation of RQD of grouting sections. Through Lugeon and grouting tests on the grouting sections, RQD_m of the grouting sections is found to be directly related to the average permeability coefficient, permeability, and units of grouting per amount of rock mass. It is found that RQD_m has a symmetrical relationship with permeability and grouting volume as well as a negative exponential correlation with unit grouting volume and average permeability coefficient. According to the curve of RQD varying with depth, the grouting amount at different depths can be obtained by using the fitting formula of unit grouting amount and RQD_m.

The seepage characteristics of rocks under conditions of multi-field activity have always been important in the field of rock mechanics. This study used the MTS815 multi-functional electro-hydraulic servo rock testing machine to conduct seepage tests on long-flame coal specimens under different confining pressures, water pressures, and temperatures. This paper presents and discusses the seepage characteristics of coal specimens under the action of thermal hydraulic mechanical multi-field combinations. Considering parameters such as volumetric strain, temperature, thermal expansion coefficient, and initial porosity, the relationships of each parameter with porosity were obtained. The test results revealed that the volumetric strain of coal specimens increased gradually with the increase of temperature. The dynamic viscosity of water decreased with the increase of temperature, which accelerated the movement and circulation of water molecules. The increase in temperature caused the volume of the coal specimen to expand, the pores in the coal specimen squeezed against each other, the pore volume decreased, and the size of the seepage channel slowly decreased, which inhibited the seepage process. Furthermore, permeability gradually decreased with the increase of temperature. This inhibited the occurrence of seepage, and the higher the confining pressure, the lower was the permeability. The porosity of coal specimens decreased with the increase in temperature, which had an inhibitory effect on the seepage behavior. The results of this study provide experimental and theoretical support for the safe mining of coal and rock in underground mines.
