The velocity and amplitude of elastic wave in the rock mass are dependent on the physical and mechanical properties, as well as the structural and stress state of rock mass. The elastic wave testing technique has become one of the most important approaches in geological engineering and rock mechanics. In order to enhance the analysis and application of elastic wave testing technique, the present paper investigates the elastic wave propagation pattern both in laboratory and in field. The lab tests focus on wave velocity in rock mass and the field work focus on the measurement of longitudinal wave velocity by using double-service elastic wave test. The field tests also include the testing of the roadway surrounding rock loose circle on the edge of underground chamber construction site. The study profiles the rock mass’s elastic wave dynamic characteristics, clarifies the rock mass structures, assess the property of the rock mass surrounding the subway. All these are of great significance to the underground chamber and tunneling engineering design and construction.
