Abstract Based on the actual condition of large deformation in soft rock tunnels on the Lanzhou-Chongqing railway, a simulation analysis by elasto-viscoplastic finite element was performed regarding the installation of a secondary lining when the deformation rate reached 2mm/d (the maximum compression stress in the secondary lining was 20.25MPa and the maximum tensile stress was 1.68MPa). The results indicate that strength failure will not occur to the lining if a C35 reinforced concrete lining is installed when the deformation rate is 2mm/d.
