Abstract：
In order to investigate the surrounding rock quality in the Chijiahe tunnel, the strength grade of epigenetic reformation is preliminarily classified, and the surrounding rock classification proposal is applied to the geological conditions of the Chijiahe tunnel. A construction period is established, and the relationship between epigenetic reformation and surrounding rock grades is discussed on the basis of epigenetic reformation characteristics and the spatial development law at the tunnel site. The results show that the rock mass at the Chijiahe tunnel site has suffered strong epigenetic reformation, being mainly characterized by developed low-angle structural planes and steeply dipping fractures. The rock mass structure and grade at the Chijiahe tunnel site are governed by an epigenetic reformation with strengths that can be classified into three levels: strong, medium, and slight. The surrounding rock at the strongly reformed zone is commonly Grade V; at the medially reformed zone, most of the rocks are Grade IV and a few are Grade V; and at the slightly reformed zone, most of the rocks are Grade III and a few are Grade IV. The epigenetic reformation zones at the Chijiahe tunnel site, which control of the grades of the surrounding rock, are mostly of the medium level.
