Mechanical behavior of anchored rock with an infilled joint under uniaxial loading revealed by AE and DIC monitoring

•Uniaxial compression test was conducted on anchored white sandstone specimens with an infilled joint.•The enhancement degree of bolt on mechanical parameters decreases with the variation of joint angle.•The macroscopic and microscopic failure characteristics of anchored jointed specimen under uniaxial loading were analyzed by means of DIC and AE monitoring.
