Abstract
In mountain tunnels, a series of advanced reinforcement measures are often employed to maintain the stability of the tunnel face, particularly in challenging geological conditions. However, there is a lack of design theories regarding the advanced support structure for uniquely shaped tunnel faces, necessitating further exploration. Based on the limit equilibrium method, this paper presents a derivation of the mechanical model for analyzing excavation face stability considering shape changes and bolts. Additionally, a design theory for horizontal glass fiber bolts in longitudinally inclined tunnel faces is established. The reinforcement effect of the pipe shed is further considered. Finally, the proposed model is validated, and parameter analysis is conducted to guide design practices.
