Minimizing the effects of tunnel fires requires various technical approaches,
such as the planning and layout of evacuation facilities and fire-prevention
structures that consider human behavior during fire, design of fire-resistant
structures for economical post-fire rehabilitation, and ventilation systems
for the control of smoke. NCC adopts only the most up-to-date and proven
technologies for these purposes.
When it comes to the environment, NCC is committed to ensuring that
projects have the least impact possible. We have used our extensive
experience and advanced analysis techniques to resolve problems of
ground subsidence and lowering of groundwater levels. Moreover, NCC
uses computer graphic simulation to design tunnel entrances that are
in harmony with the surrounding landscape.
