Abstract: Self-compacting concrete (SCC) has already been successfully employed on many occasions in tunnel construction. One problem that arises with this particular application is that of the basic fire spalling properties of SCC in the specific scenario of a tunnel fire. This paper takes into account, firstly, investigations into various self-compacting tunnel concretes conducted as part of a research project, and secondly, large-scale loading tests of components undertaken for the construction of the Citytunnel in Malmö (CTM).
