Abstract

The report focuses on evacuation aspects at tunnel construction sites. An introduction provides a framework on what determines the outcome of an evacuation, i.e. the physical environment and management aspects. Analyses of the evacuation conditions for several fire scenarios are performed using a combined smoke spread and evacuation model developed as a part of the project. Finally, general recommendations on how to analyse the evacuation safety in a specific tunnel is provided.
