Abstract

During the construction of underground caverns, the stability of deep underground cavern excavation, which affects the safety and sustainable development of such projects, is a hot issue. First, based on the mechanical properties of surrounding rock in deep tunnels, the strain-softening behavior, damage, and heterogeneity of rock masses are analyzed. Then, a strain-softening model of heterogeneous jointed rock mass that considers statistical damage (SSD) is developed and implemented through FLAC3D simulation software. Finally, the SSD is applied to a deep roadway in the Jinchuan mining area, and a comparative analysis of the computation results of the Mohr–Coulomb (MC) model and the strain-softening (SS) model are carried out. The numerical results are compared with the field-monitoring results, which show that the SSD model simulated the behavior of the surrounding rocks well. The results show that the deformations of the roof and floor are larger, which may serve as a reference for the support pattern of deep roadways.
