Due to large span and complex construction technology, the portal section of tunnel is vulnerable to the threats of latent slope failures such as landslide, spalling and collapse. In the present paper, to ensure the construction safety of tunnel, the attribute recognition model of risk assessment for the slope stability at tunnel portal was established by using attribute mathematics theory. The integrated degree of rock mass, lithological feature, geological structural feature, weathering degree, seismic intensity, gradient, rainfall and construction factors were selected as the indices of the risk assessment for the stability slope at tunnel portal with grading criteria of each index. Moreover, the weights of the assessment indices were determined by the judgment matrix constructed from analytic hierarchy process. The attribute measurement functions were used to compute attribute measurement of single index and synthetic attribute measurement. The identification and classification of risk assessment for the slope stability at tunnel portal were assessed using the confidence criterion. For practical purposes, the stability of slope located in portal of an actual Tunnel, i.e., Jiefangcun Tunnel in Cheng-Lan Railway, was evaluated based on the previously established attribute recognition model. The corresponding risk treatment measures were then proposed based on the assessment results and monitor results to ensure the construction safety of tunnel portal.
