A performance-based approach<\/h3>\n

Since the implementation of the EC Directive 2004\/54\/EC, tunnel safety has become a very important issue in designing and operating road tunnels. Austria introduced a performance-based approach to road tunnel safety. In its first publication, the Austrian Tunnel Risk Model (TuRisMo) described one of the first methods for analysing and evaluating road tunnel safety in a quantitative manner.<\/p>\n

TuRisMo combines a set of different methodical elements to analyse a tunnel system in its entirety, taking an integrated approach, and allows calculating the expected societal risk value for tunnel users in the investigated tunnel.<\/p>\n

The method consists of two main elements: a quantitative frequency analysis and a quantitative consequence analysis.<\/p>\n

Continuously upgraded<\/h3>\n

Since the publication of the model in 2008, comprehensive practical experience has been gained. TuRisMo was continuously upgraded to meet the multifaceted requirements of different tunnel systems. Thus, the model now permits a much more detailed investigation of the factors influencing fire risk and a much wider range of applications.<\/p>\n

    A joint effort by Austrian authorities, associations and private companies<\/h3>\n

    In April 2015, the upgraded model was published in a revised issue of the Austrian RVS 09.03.11 guideline. In Austria, guidelines for road tunnels are drawn up by the Austrian Association for Research on Road, Rail and Transport (FSV). Working groups have been established at association level, involving relevant stakeholders as well as experts from universities and professional practice.<\/p>\n

    The RVS 09.03.11 revision was a joint effort by the Austrian Federal Road Tunnel Authority, the Austrian Ministry for Transport, Innovation and Technology, Austria\u2019s major motorway and tunnel operator ASFiNAG, the Austrian Federal Fire Brigade Association and experts from Graz University as well as from private companies. ILF Consulting Engineers Austria GmbH was commissioned to develop the core part of the model.<\/p>\n
