Nowadays, there so many fire accidents happened in subways and tunnels, buildings. In this paper, the behaviors of subway damaged by fire, the fire protection techniques for evaluating subway structures stability are presented. To protect the tunnel by fire, flame detector method is resonable.

More than sixty percentages of tunnels in the second phase of Seoul subway project have the ground coverages less than twenty meters. Majority of ground conditions encountered during turutel ling, therefore, are weathered rocks or weathered scils. Substantial lengths of tunnels are being constructed and designed running through the alluvial deposits as well. A comprehensive evaluation of current design and construction technology of Seoul subway tunnels is made with four categories such as site investigations, design concepts and methods, auxiliary measures and quality controls. Critical comments are given and some suggestions for the improvement of technology are presented.

For the construction of twin single track subway tunnels by NATM within close proximity of existing vehicle underpass in the highly congested area of downtown Seoul, finite element analyses were performed to evaluate the ground responses during tunnelling and also the stability and safety of the underpass structure and subway tunnels. Results of the analyses indicated the need to improve the soil beneath the underpass, and pre-grouting was carried out prior to the tunnel excavation. During tunnel construction field measurement program was implemented to confirm the results of anslyses and to control the tunnel construction procedures, thus ensuring stability of the existing structres.

Subway lines often pass through the densely populated districts. As the social interest about environment is more and more increased, the need of countermeasure to the vibration generated by subway train is grossing nowadays. It will be effective to take a measure in the track part, specially at the track design stage. In this study, the vibration proof performances for the various types of the tracks adopted in domestic and foreign countries are evaluated. Based on the results, the criteria of vibration proof performance to meet the demands of the both of populated and normal areas are established.

Enormous instruments have been installed to measure movement and stresses during and after the construction of Seoul Subway. However, a number of problems have been noticed and reported, such as planning, calibration, installation, contract procedure etc. Some of them are presented and discussed in this paper in order to call an attention to these problems and provide a baseline for the future improvement.

This paper proposes a simulation method of train control system to increase railroad transportation capacity in the Seoul Subway. Comparing with the conventional fixed block system, a new train operation method of "moving block system" shows a more capability of same railroad. A graphic simulation program is developed for application of moving block system to Seoul subway train control system. The result of the simulation program shows a shorten headway i.e. a more dense operation of trains and a higher efficiency of railroad with the suggested moving block system.

When a rail vehicle transverses tight curves, it often emits an intense, high-pitched squeal. This squeal has always been noticed as one of the most disturbing noise sources of railway systems. At present, w cannot predicted squeal noise that is influenced by a large number of dependent parameters. In this study, we performed structural analysis to find out the frequency of the wheel and measured squeal noise at Seoul subway. We also tested reduction effectiveness of squeal noise through rail lubricator

As we have understood the commonly launched T-DMB service from December 2005, we kindly recommend to apply LCX cable installing solution which can be covering underground subway and tunnel T-DMB signal shadow area with most efficient network implementation method. Subway passengers would be enjoyable continuous T-DMB services through LCX cable installing solution.

The object of this study is to reduce the subway noise by the low noise wheel. The vibro-acoustic reduction was predicted from the FRF difference between low noise wheel and solid wheel by experimental modal analysis. The low noise wheel and solid wheel were compared in viewpoint of car interior/exterior noise. The effect of low noise wheel on the noise of subway train of 6 vehicles was obtained. But, the application of low noise wheel must be reviewed in some aspect.
