ITA Open Session 2002 was devoted to a very topical subject:
“Fire and Life Safety”. Considering the recent severe and catastrophic fire accidents in road tunnels as in the Mont-Blanc Tunnel, the Tauern tunnel and the St-Gotthard-Tunnel, this item calls for an intensified discussion on an international basis. The ITA Open Session gave an excellent stimulus in this direction following the ITA organised workshops in Lausanne, Switzerland, in March 2000 and amending the efforts of ITA Working Group 6, dealing with structural fire safety in Tunnels, in correspondence with the sister organizations.
