The fire behaviour of an inner lining for tunnels
The fire resistance of a sprayed concrete inner lining for tunnels has been investigated experimentally and theoretically. During the initial first test on a section of nominal size 5 × 3 × 0.12 m3 the specimen maintained the integrity and insulation criteria during 180 minutes fire exposure with the Hydrocarbon fire curve. Also during the second test, where two specimens of half the size were tested, the integrity and insulation criteria’s were maintained but during this test the fire exposure was reduced during a period of the test due to a technical malfunction. The thermal properties of the sprayed concrete was shown by TPS measurements to be in the span of the values found in the Eurocode. Further on, calculations based on the Eurocode model including temperature dependent stress/strain was shown to give results on the safe side compared with measurements performed during the test. Stresses calculated in the supporting steel bars were 2 to 3 times higher than the measurements which is conservative. Key words: tunnels, fire, sprayed concrete
