The influence on tunnel construction of karst and underground rivers is always an important problem in tunnel engineering. In order to demonstrate the rationality of backfill parameters and the effectiveness of supports under the influence of groundwater when a tunnel passes through a large karst cave, the finite element software FLAC3D was used for numerical analysis. Converting the mean values and standard deviations of mechanical response results of the surrounding rock and the supports on multiple sections into the ECULID distance from the origin point on a two-dimensional plane as evaluation indexes, the influence of the reinforcement parameters on the mechanical response of the surrounding rock and the supports was analyzed by orthogonal experiments. Based on fuzzy decision theory, by regarding the ECULID distance between the simulated result of each group and the global optimal value of the multiple evaluation index as the comprehensive evaluation index, a backfill parameter design method was proposed. By comparing the results which used optimal and worst parameters in the FLAC3D, 10 times and 2.5 times differences in longitudinal and horizontal displacement were observed, respectively. Then, the optimal backfill parameters were applied to the actual project for verification. The field monitoring results showed that the optimal backfill parameters can effectively reduce the displacement around the tunnel. After constructing a diversion for the underground river, the water flow in the karst cave did not rise during a rainstorm. This study provides a reference for the design and construction of other projects in the future.
