For tunnels excavated in soft layered rock strata, the secondary lining is susceptible to asymmetrical pressure and substantial concrete cracking. To solve this problem, a supporting system that combines a secondary lining with a highly deformable layer is proposed. First, field investigations were conducted to reveal the mechanical behaviors of the secondary lining of two typical tunnels situated in phyllite formation in China. Then, similarity model tests were used to analyze the mechanical responses of the secondary lining in layered rock stratum with different inclination angles. Finally, numerical simulation was adopted to systemically investigate the yielding mechanism of yielding layer in different cases. The results show that: (1) The distribution of inner force and deformation of lining is non-uniform due to the anisotropy of rock mass and geo-stress field, with the positive bending moment and larger axial force appearing mainly in the region where the tangent of the tunnel contour is parallel or vertical to the weak planes, respectively. (2) The existence of yielding layer has no influence on the distributed feature of inner force and displacement around tunnel perimeter, while it can significantly lower the magnitude of inner force and displacement of the lining. (3) The distinctly compressive zones of yielding layer coincide with the zones of positive bending moment, and the line connecting the central points of the evidently compressive zones on both sides will deflect towards the direction of minor principal stress to a certain extent. (4) The inner force and deformation of lining increase with the increase in the strength or decrease in the thickness of yielding layer, and this changing trend is related to the different supporting curves for linings with yielding layer of different strength and thickness.
