Selection Of

A number of fire ventilation scenarios were investigated in order to identify the proper ventilation scheme for conducting design fire tests in a medium-sized residential room of a size of 4.2 m long, 3.8 m wide and 2.4 m high. The ventilation schemes were based on using a window, door, or both with different sizes. The fuel package that was used in all scenarios consisted of a mock-up sofa made of polyurethane foam and two wood cribs underneath it. The selection of this fuel package is supported by fire statistics that many fatal residential fires begin with an item of upholstered furniture. The CFD technique was used to conduct the numerical simulations for eleven ventilation scenarios using the Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) version 5. The effect of window and door sizes, and fire load location on the heat release rate, burning rate, temperature during the period of fully-developed fire (post-flashover), and the onset of post-flashover and its duration were investigated.

Reliable Methods

<p>Assessing the performance of tunnels in fire is becoming increasingly crucial for the overall usability and durability of the structure. One of the most reliable methods for evaluating the presentation of the concrete during fire in tunnels is by testing. In this work, the fire tests performed on the Victory Boogie Woogietunnel, project Rotterdamsebaan (The Hague, the Netherlands) are discussed. The study aims to assess the fire performance of the cut and cover concrete section when subjected to a tunnel fire curve. A series of 6 fire tests were performed on concrete slabs of the size 5,0 m x 2,4 m x 0,4 m when exposed to Rijkswaterstaat (RWS) fire curve for 120 minutes. Based on the work, one of the main conclusions drawn were that it is necessary to test a large-scale specimen to judge the performance of a protection system accurately. Another important conclusion is that the test specimen should have the concrete mixture which accurately represents the tunnel concrete to avoid uncertainty in the fire induced spalling behaviour of concrete.</p>
