Abstract After 1975, the appearance of finite element numerical limit method and the application and development of computer technology have brought the elastic-plastic analytical calculation of engineering materials into a new era of numerical limit calculation. The new methods, namely, strength reduction method and load increment method,as well as the recently proposed ultimate strain method, are adopted in the rock tunnels studied in this paper. To solve the uncertainty of mechanical parameters of surrounding rock in rock tunnels and provide more scientific and reasonable mechanical parameters of surrounding rock, the surrounding rock classification must be made combining theory, investigation and experience. Taking the surrounding rock classification in rail transit tunnels as an example,the improvement of the classification level includes improving the strength index, mainly adopting the quantitative classification method, reasonably determining the basic index BQ value of rock mass quality, increasing the number of surrounding rock classifications, formulating the surrounding rock classification tables for the running tunnel and the station tunnel, and achieving the coordination and unification of qualitative and quantitative classification methods. Finally, the quantitative indexes of surrounding rock self-stability are determined, and the more scientific and reasonable physical and mechanical parameters of surrounding rocks are put forward through back calculation.
