Abstract

Difficulties of tunnel construction mainly appear in the entrance and exit stage, some adverse geological problems may occur. In terms of the tunnel at the Changsha-Kunming section of the Shanghai-Kunming passenger line, firstly, adverse geological phenomena at tunnel exits was described. Secondly, major factors leading to disasters were listed, including geology, hydrology and construction procedure. Combined with in-situ conditions, Finite Element Method (FEM) was used to analyze the instability mechanism of surrounding rock after the upper arch gate was excavated by three-bench seven-step exaction method. At last, through comparison between computed result and measuring data, several basic conclusions was obtained. It can make much sense to similar engineering.
