[0002] Soft rock tunnel refers to a tunnel structure formed in a soft rock geological body. When tunnel excavation and tunneling construction are carried out in a soft rock geological body, over-excavation may occur. Over-excavation will increase the amount of slag discharge, increase the thickness of the initial shotcrete, delay the construction period and increase the construction cost. If the over-excavation is not properly controlled, cavities and unstable surrounding rock will easily form behind the initial support. In order to reduce the amount of over-excavation, the external insertion angle of the drill hole is generally reduced while the opening position is converged to reduce over-excavation. There will be under-excavation near the supported steel frame section, and the under-excavation treatment takes a long time, affecting the progress and quality of the project.

[0003] In the prior art, when excavating soft rock tunnels, controlled blasting and milling are usually used for excavation.
