  1. “1” is the surrounding rock pressure of the first pilot tunnel when the excavation of the second pilot tunnel begins; “2” is the surrounding rock pressure of the first pilot tunnel after the excavation of the second pilot tunnel is completed; “3” is the final surrounding rock pressure of the first pilot tunnel; “4” is the surrounding rock pressure of the second pilot tunnel when the main tunnel starts excavation; “5” is the final surrounding rock pressure of the second pilot tunnel; “6” is the surrounding rock pressure of the main tunnel.
  2. “a” is on-site monitoring surrounding rock pressure value; “b” is changes in surrounding rock pressure; “c” is step excavation empirical parameters.
