Abstract: Based on the engineering background of Tangkou Mine, affiliated to Jibei Mining Area, the basic geological characteristics of the deep high-stress soft roadway are illustrated on the basis of geological mechanical test. According to the visco-elastic analysis of the Burgers model on deep high-stress soft rock roadway, the expressions of surface displacement and displacement rate of surrounding rock in deep high-stress soft rock roadway are obtained, and the curves of surface displacement and displacement rate of surrounding rock in deep high-stress soft rock roadway under the different geo-stresses, elastic modules and viscosity coefficients are achieved. FLAC3D is used to simulate the rheological cha-racteristics, analyzing the deformation features of the roof, floor and two-sides of the surrounding rock under high-stress.

Key words: deep, high-stress soft rock roadway, failure characteristics, visco-elastic analysis, FLAC3D numerical simulation
