For tunnel engineering, the fault that locates near tunnel always plays an important role on the stability of the surrounding rock mass and the safety of the supporting system. To investigate the influence of the fault on the tunnel stability, systematic numerical experiments are carried out via the FINAL code. Through these numerical experiment results, the displacement and the distribution of the stress in surrounding rock mass are analyzed for these cases of the different locations and dips of fault around tunnel periphery, and the stress in the sprayed concrete layer are analyzed as well. To simulate the characteristics of the fault located in the rock mass, the COJO element, embedded in the FINAL code, is used in all numerical experiments. The quantized results reflecting the rules of the change for the displacement, stress, plastic region in the surrounding rock mass are obtained also in this paper.
