The mechanical principle and surrounding rock deformation feature of highstress coal roadway was analyzed.The condition of stress balance of the kind of theroadway was put forward.The surrounding rock control principle and supporting techniqueof high stress coal roadway were discussed.It was very important to control early daysdeformation of coal sides.The supporting strength is should increased,so the strengthloss of coal sides is decreased.The range of plastic fluid zone is reduced.The abovemention-ned principle is applied in industrial test,and the new supporting technique is ap-plied successfully.
Through the description of the deformational features of the surrounding rockaround high stress engineering soft rock roadways,the coupling stabilization principle ofinner and outer structures in surrounding rock was put forward.The supporting principlesof high stress engineering soft rock roadway (high resistance and yielding support,timelysupport,high strength and high stiffness supports) were proposed,which were applied inengineering practices,and obtained better achievements.
