In order to analyze the different construction program under the tunnel surrounding rock stress, strain and plastic zone changes, we take water tunnel group of nuclear power plant as basic project and the application of software FLACIS3D numerical simulation.The results show that: During the tunnel excavation and support group process, the different rock tunnel construction program can produce different stress, displacement and plastic zone extended range of distribution and other aspects.To interval-type excavation program,although previously disturbing effect of the excavation of the tunnel construction and tunnel excavation of rock, it can generate less impact on the stability of surrounding rock. For the latter excavation of the tunnel, the tunnel project area affected by the first digging,the stress can be released, the stability of the first excavation of the tunnel effect is also small.Comparing to sequential and parallel program-type excavation program, the use of interval-style group of rock tunnel excavation will help stabilize the body.
