In this chapter it is introduced a simple methodology for the quantitative assessment of the severity of the expected consequences of a tunnel fire that can be applied in any complex environment. The proposed methodology was applied to the Morgex North tunnel to show its potentiality for evaluating the effect of different geometric characteristics on the safety performances of a tunnel in the event of an unwanted fire.

Abstract

In this chapter it is introduced a simple methodology for the quantitative assessment of the severity of the expected consequences of a tunnel fire that can be applied in any complex environment. The proposed methodology was applied to the Morgex North tunnel to show its potentiality for evaluating the effect of different geometric characteristics on the safety performances of a tunnel in the event of an unwanted fire.
