  • Recently, plans of tunnel and construction have increased. Unfortunately, the more we have tunnels, the more we have accidents in there. Because an accident or a fire in the tunnel is fatal to user safety, social concerns are focusing on the disaster prevention facilities. Cross passage tunnel is regarded as one of the useful disaster prevention facilities, which is increasing, while there were only few studies about the support system. This study tried to verify whether the support system is appropriate or not with empirical methods-theoretical methods and back analysis using measurement data. Additionally, we also looked into the range of reinforcement in accordance with strength/stress ratio of rock mass.

  • A plan of construction of subsea tunnels connecting Korea-Japan and Korea-China have been discussing over the past several ten years. This paper were wrote about the present capacity of our engineer, the cooperation plan of politics and economy. Especially we examined and studied resolution method and technical problem in the construction of Sub-sea tunnel. In terms of excavation technology, Blasting and water resistance technology should be cared considering the status of rock such as fault in the deep sea. After of a construction work, it should be carefully designed and constructed for the fire and leakage management in Tunnel, It should be applied to High Construction Management Professional and Value Management(CVS) etc.

  • Spray density of the water spray system which is installed in long road tunnels and hazardous vehicle tunnels is applied without proper performance assessment process. In this study, the requirements of Spray Density Guidelines at the standard pressure is investigated through spray test set up the nozzle of a water spray system in a simulated road tunnel. The results showed that all the nozzles used in the test area did not meet the requirements of the Guidelines. The absence of performance test codes and inspection process on the nozzle at real scale in tunnels may have caused this practice. Therefore, it is suggested that the performance test regulations of the nozzle on the water spray system is established in order to properly assess the system performance.

  • The result of all terrors causes enormous damage. In order to prevent this damage in advance and find a prompt provision after terror, we investigated a safety measure against terror on the assumption that the fire in Daegu central subway is a subway terror. The followings are the safety measures against terror based on an underground space. Frist, training systems have to be established to provide against a terror. Second, People's consciousness about safety from a terror, centering on early education, has to be raised. Third, the provisions related with underground tunnel have to be established so that people can take shelter in underground tunnel areas. Fourth, CCTV has to be established in the guest rooms of the electric motor cars. Last, cooperative systems among related organizations have to be constructed, and the networks of the organizations have to be established so that they can cope with an accident.

  • Airflow distributions along tunnel and over the cross section are critical in selecting installation location of the velocity monitor to obtain the representative data for ventilation as well as fire safety systems. This paper aims at performing CFD and on-site studies to analyze the longitudinal and cross-sectional distributions of the air velocity in tunnels employing longitudinal and semi-transversal ventilation systems. This study can ultimately contribute to selecting the monitor type as well as the optimal installation locations in vehicle tunnel.

  • An aerial target system is used for the purpose of experimental test and fire training of missile that newly developed and in mass production. Since the target drones of aerial target systems are monopolized by several major countries so that they are selling at a high price. In this paper, we present the CFD simulation results on a new target drone that Kyungan co. ltd is developing with their own technologies. The presented CFD simulation was conducted in the same conditions of a wind tunnel tests and we could obtain the simulation results of the lift and drag values were in errors by less than 15 percent compared to the experiment. The simulation results were used to determine the modified shapes of new prototype target drone that could fly safely.

  • The free flow of fine bubbles generated by electrolysis and smoke flow in a space enclosed by fire were recently found to show the same tendency thus leading to the introduction of a research technique. The research experimentally models smoke diffusion and flow in parallel and slanted tunnels using the fine hydrogen bubbles generated by electrolysis in a water tank. Visualization laser with wavelength of 532nm and output power of 1000mW is used to visualize effectively the cross section of fine hydrogen bubble flows generated in a model tunnel.

  • In this paper, the smoke behavior in an underground station on operation of the fans in the ventiliation of the station was measured by the experimental method when the fire occurred in the underground station platform where the platfrom screen door was installed. The ventilation characteristics were compared when the ventilation system was operated and when the ventilation system was not operated when a fire occurred at the platform where the clean door was closed. To simulate the fire smoke, the smoke generated from the smoke generator was heated using a hot air fan. The transmittance was measured using a smoke density meter to quantitatively measure fire smoke. If the screen door is closed and the ventilation system of the underground station does not work, it is confirmed that if a fire occurs in the platform, smoke accumulates inside the platform, evacuating passengers is very difficult and can lead to a very dangerous situation. On the other hand, under the condition that the ventilation facility of the subway station is operated, the smoke evacuates to the outside through the ventilation facility of the underground station, and airflow is formed in the direction from the waiting room to the waiting area, so that the passenger located on the platform can safely evacuate toward the concourse. In the following paper, we will discuss the concurrent effect of tunnel ventilation through tunnel vent near the platform.

  • The road tunnel install a vent for the purpose of ventilation and smoke control. Ventilation equipment capacity(number of jet fans) depends on from the condition that of the pressure and ventilation resistance. Pressure and the resistance under operating vehicle have affected on the drag coefficient. The drag coefficient of the tunnel have affected by the blockage effect and slipstream effects. However, when calculating the ventilation fan, are not properly consider taking into account such effects. Therefore, ventilation force may have been slightly overestimated. This paper describes the drag coefficient through a numerical analysis to calculate the equivalent resistance area that reflects the vehicle distance, and examined the equivalent resistance area. The ventilation coefficient corresponding to the result heavy vehicle mixing ratio of the present study was not clear. Equivalent resistance area had reduced by about 86% compared to the road design handbook current standards. Also it had analyzed and reduced to 62.2% compared to Korea Highway Corporation ventilation design criteria ratio, which is the old standard.
