Abstract: The primary cracks in the rock block undergo series of steps and finally disintegrate, during this procession, the radius affects the impact force of rock block in clastic flow. Therefore, it is essential to figure out the evolution mechanism of crack propagation for the design of engineering protection. In this study, based on fracture mechanics and Hertz contact theory, collision happened between Received: 18-May-2020 Revised: 13-Jul-2020 Accepted: 18-Aug-2020

rock block and slope surface is assumed to be elastic contact. Based on the above assumption, the critical impact force of crack propagation is obtained, and a model used to calculate the crack propagation length in a single collision is established. Besides, a rock fall site in Jiuzhai Valley was used to verify the calculation model. According to the model, several key factors were identified to influence crack propagation length including falling height, initial equivalent radius, and recovery coefficient of slope surface. Moreover, as a result of the orthogonal experiment, the influence of
