The soil of Chenggong Tunnel is tested in laboratory to determine its expansibility. The traditional three-step method and three-step plus center pillar method are compared and analyzed by using MIDAS-GTS. Finally, the deformation of surrounding rock after the construction of three-step plus center pillar method is obtained through on-site monitoring. The results show that: 1) The free expansion rate, montmorillonite content and cation exchange capacity of Chenggong tunnel soil are determined, and the expansive parameters are obtained. 2) Through numerical simulation, it is concluded that under the condition of strong expansive soil and weak surrounding rock, the settlement of vault and two sides caused by the traditional step method are both larger than that of the three steps plus center pillar method. This new improved method can effectively reduce the disturbance to surrounding rock and significantly reduce the settlement of vault;3) The data of vault settlement and displacement of two sides of the tunnel after the construction of the three-step plus center pillar method are obtained by on-site monitoring, and are simulated and analyzed by using MIDAS-GTS software. The relative error value of vault settlement obtained by the two methods is 1%, which indicates that MIDAS-GTS has good simulation effect on the stress state and deformation state of the tunnel, and further indicates that this method is very practical for the case of small convergence of side walls and large vault settlement.展开更多
