The time and space of the support structure applying is related to the overall stability of the roadway after excavation directly. Designed twenty-four groups of roadway support schemes with time and space dimensions, and studied the stability characteristics of roadway in different schemes by using Fast Lagrangian Analysis of Continua in Three Dimensions. The main conclusions are as follows: the influence of energy dissipation (time) and support position (space) on the stability of the roadway is not a linear relationship, and supporting at the appropriate opportunity can be beneficial. Established the "displacement-dissipation energy" curve, founding that there is an obvious "jump" phenomenon in the dissipation energy of surrounding rock during the process of gradually increasing displacement. A novel method for determining the optimum supporting opportunity of roadway based on energy dissipation was proposed, based on the above finding. This study can provide an original idea for the determination of roadway supporting opportunity.
