ABSTRACT

A concrete lining of a tunnel is spalled due to increasing internal air pressure when exposed to a prolonged fire caused by a car accident. The spalled-off concrete pieces expose steels to high temperature, which leads to their stress loss and eventually the collapse of a tunnel could be collapsed due to the deterioration of concrete and steel. Therefore, a fireproofing material should be applied to protect concrete lining and steel from high temperature. This paper selected a cementitious matrix with EVA polymer and a basalt fiber as the fireproofing materials and evaluated their fire-resistant performance by the RABT-ZTV fire loading tests using a liquefied petroleum gas(LPG). Their levels of depths are used as a test variable(20mm, 30mm or 40mm), and the interior temperatures of concrete, steel, and the cementitious matrix are obtained from embedded K-type thermocouples. Failure mechanism and thermal results of the interior concrete and cementitious matrix are discussed in detail.
