Abstract
Large deformation of surrounding rock makes the internal space of a tunnel cannot meet the requirements of normal use after support, even leads to the instability of surrounding rock and destruction of the tunnel structure. In order to optimize the parameters of the primary support to control the deformation of surrounding rock, field tests and numerical simulations are carried out. Based on the engineering geological conditions and the deformation monitoring data of surrounding rock, four important creep parameters of the improved Burgers model are inversed by numerical simulation, considering the creep of surrounding rock in tunnel construction. The results show that it is feasible to use tunnel crown settlement as a control indicator to determine the thickness of shotcrete. Short rock bolts are preferentially used in the tunnel arches, and a combination of long and short rock bolts should be used on the sidewall to control the large deformation of surrounding rock. When the excavation method of upper-lower bench is used in the single-track railway with a relatively large high-span ratio, the horizontal convergence monitoring points of the upper bench are recommended to be set 0.8-0.9 times the height of the upper bench from the tunnel arch crown, and those of the lower bench are recommended to be set 0.6-0.7 times the total height of the upper-lower bench from the tunnel arch crown.
