Research on Stress Characteristics of Rockburst in Over-Length Deep-Buried Tunnel

As a unique geological hazard in a high-geo-stress environment, rockburst happens with strong suddenness, randomness, and destructiveness, but the mechanism of its occurrence in a deep-buried tunnel in a high-geo-stress environment needs further study. Based on the analyses of the stress field of the rockburst section of Ping’an Tunnel, which is over-long and deep-buried, the occurrence mechanism of rockburst is figured out. Furtherly, the intensity and location of rockburst are predicted by using the rockburst criterion. Results show that there exists large compressive stress at the side wall of the tunnel, which is the main cause of rockburst. Under a high-geo-stress condition, due to the existence of unfavorable factors like structural planes, high intensity rockburst is likely to happen in the middle of the tunnel face after the sudden release of original rock stress. Arranging stress-releasing holes in the rockburst section can effectively reduce the possibility of rockburst by releasing the original rock stress in advance. The research results can deepen the understanding of the mechanism of rockburst in a high-geo-stress environment and provide scientific basis for the prevention and control of rockburst in similar engineering projects.
