文摘On the basis of the relationship between each classification index for underground chambers and the elastic wave velocity of rock mass, a corresponding relationship between the classification of rock surrounding underground chambers and the initial damage variable is established by using the wave velocity definition of the initial damage variable of rock masses. Calculation and analysis of relevant data from a hydropower dam located in Southwest China show that the initial damage variable obtained by means of surrounding rock classification has a close relationship with that calculated by wave velocity, which verifies the rationality of the relationship of the two classification indices. This study establishes a foundation for further damage mechanics and stability analysis on the basis of surrounding rock classification.
