The sleeve at its lower end engages a faceplate which engages the roof. The upper end of the sleeve can be secured in the bore with an anchor, as is well known in the art. Ports in the lower end of the sleeve permit the separate introduction of separate components of a hardenable binder material, which mix as they pass up through the annular chamber. The binder is extruded out through ports in the upper end of the sleeve and travels downward filling the annular space between the sleeve and the bore. The binder hardens securing the central member and the sleeve in the bore.Other References
