Realisation of fire and intrusion protection at the ‘‘Diabolo’’ train tunnel complex at Brussels Int’l Airport
Lieven Schoonbaert - INFRABEL
(in lingua inglese)
In this paper we showed how a set of well-considered automatic responses can contribute positively to the implementation of the safety and security policy of a railway tunnel, based on international recommendations. The automated scenarios (and the systems behind it) assist control room operators and intervention teams in the quick assessment of possibly dangerous situations, and assist them in the selection and swift activation of the appropriate escape and rescue facilitation measures. Mainly being infrastructural measures, these ‘technical’ pre-configured fire scenarios are a useful complement to the operational measures which continue to be of utmost importance to safeguard the tunnel infrastructure and its users.
