Only the highest standard of workmanship and technology can be utilised in tunnel construction because of the seriousness of potential fire sources and type of combustion. This was seen in the British channel tunnel fire. |
|
Most of the systems that we have installed have been tested in Australia and abroad to withstand the heat generated by a Hydrocarbon fire that is caused by car and truck fuel and their cargo. |
|
Our work has included: |
-
structural steelFendolite and Mandolite sprays,
-
mechanical ventilation and exhaust fan enclosures and duct protection using Promatect H, Fendolite and Mandolite Sprays,
-
fire stopping of services penetrations in the tunnels and their many plant rooms,
- Separating east/west lanes with wall barriers using Durasteel and Promatest S steel-faced boards,
-
Construction joint covers using Promatect S steel faced-boards,
-
Lining escalators in calcium silicate board in the Sydney Airport Link Rail tunnels.
