Difficulties of tunnel construction mainly appear in the entrance and exit stage, some adverse geological problems may occur. In terms of the tunnel at the Changsha-Kunming section of the Shanghai-Kunming passenger line, firstly, adverse geological phenomena at tunnel exits was described. Secondly, major factors leading to disasters were listed, including geology, hydrology and construction procedure. Combined with in-situ conditions, Finite Element Method (FEM) was used to analyze the instability mechanism of surrounding rock after the upper arch gate was excavated by three-bench seven-step exaction method. At last, through comparison between computed result and measuring data, several basic conclusions was obtained. It can make much sense to similar engineering.

Nowadays, railway tunnel construction faces huge developments and opportunities, with a tendency for high speed and long distance. How to effectively apply the information in the construction process has been the focus of current research. According to the Xian-nvyan tunnel in Xicheng high-speed railway, our research was based on the geological forecast, selecting appropriate tunneling model parameters to establish the 3D calculation model. Through the numerical simulation of three tunnel excavation and support methods, we analyzed the displacement of surrounding rock and the plastic failure to select the construction method reasonably. Compared with the actual measured data, we judged the rationality of the selected scheme and model parameters, so as to provide design parameters which conform to the surrounding rock properties for the subsequent construction, thus optimizing the construction program and applying the concept of information-based construction in engineering actually.

On the basis of different landform and multifarious topography in rugged mountainous area in southwest China, typical tunnel portals for single track tunnels in a new high speed railway line have been presented in the paper. The portal comprises headwall, shed tunnel, bridge abutment and its support. Portal with headwall is suitable for tunnel to resist front earth pressure on high and abrupt slope. Shed tunnel is placed in front of headwall so as to prevent rockfall; its outward part is built into a flared one. Meanwhile, the installation of bridge and its abutment are also included in the portal according to landform in the paper.
