Abstract
ABSTRACT The tensile strength is an important parameter in the design and analysis of cemented paste backfill (CPB) for underground mining. Although traditional axisymmetric dogbone-shaped specimens have been used to directly determine the tensile strength of rocks and concretes, such methods are not practical for CPB because of its much lower strength and associated difficulties in shaping the specimens. To determine the tensile strength of CPB, a castable rectangular dogbone specimen is developed, the apparatus including a compression to tension load converter, and a four-part split mold. The designed apparatus is validated using numerical analysis and shown through testing applications to be relatively simple, practical, and reliable. Results illustrate that the primary design allows the direct determination of tensile strength and characterization of the stress-strain behavior of isotropic materials. The stress-strain behavior could be reliably correlated with unconfined compression strength test results. The data show how the tensile strength is dependent on curing time and cement content. These results can lead to better mine backfill designs that fundamentally improve the underground mine stability.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
