1 A Review of Metro Tunnel safety Parameters and Role of Risk management, Tehran Metro Vahed Ghiasi (1), Samad Ghiasi (2) Husaini Omar (3), Behroz Ebrahimi (4),Mohammad Ghiasi (5) (1, 2, 4, 5) Tehran Urban and Suburban Railway Company (TUSRC), Iran (3)Department of Civil Engineering, University Putra Malaysia, 43400, Serdang, Selangor Malaysia ABSTRACT: Preparing and using of main requirement and equipments to protect of passengers and national capitals in critical situation are main purpose of metro managers.derailing of trains, train incidents, fire occurring, suicide, are general problem in Tunnel and subway stations therefore Metro stations must have modern safety and security equipments also role of construction problem related to safety in tunnel and tunnel stability are discussed. This paper explains about the most important factors of metro tunnels safety and importance of Safety and security to improve the more comfortable services in metro tunnel and subway stations. Key words: Tunnel safety, Tunnel security, Tunnel stability, Risk Management. INTRODUCTION: education is the most important and most effective way to achieve the objectives of an organization determined plan and almost "can not be successful without the existence of these measures was submitted. Rail transport systems within the urban specific conditions, maximum safety special travel arrangements for the implementation of activities require. Study the effect of helping to train passengers unusual and will raise the health, safety Environmental threaten, under the guidance and help train staff for the best decision possible. WHAT IS SAFTY MAMNAGMENT SYSTEM? A regular safety management system approach to safety, along with systematic and explicit comprehensive processes for managing risks are secure. Like all management systems, the safety management system for achieving safety goals, planning and performance measurement was created. Safety management system is the fabric of an organization and part of the culture. 511

2 THE PRINCIPLE OF SAFTY MANAGMENT: Philosophy - Management of safety management philosophy starts with: There intentionally primary safety threat, Create organizational standards, Emphasis is that people re-task safety. Policies - to determine how to achieve safety: Clear description of the responsibilities, powers and response, An organizational structure and processes for integration purposes with all aspects of operational safety, Create knowledge and skills required for doing things, Procedures - instructions to perform the duties, developed by the organization to implement policy: Transparency and how to do tasks for all people, planning, organizing and control, monitoring, evaluation processes, and immune status, Activity - what the real work happens: Follow the guidelines effective and efficient, Avoid the failure of safety is reduced, Obtain appropriate corrective action when threatening factors, 512

3 Facilities Safety Station: Fire Fighting Equipment: 1 - Box fire (F.B) 2 - Capsules of Fire PG type and CO2 3 - Automatic Fire Fighting System Panels Help safety signals represented in figure 1 and 2. Safety facilities inside the tunnel: 1 - Contact a guide rail 2 - Open train doors Building Automatic System (BAS) -Station Local System -Central Control System Figure1. Panels Help safety signals Subset BAS system BAS system includes subset is: 1 - input air station (VE5) 2 - input air tunnel (VE3, VE4) 3 - discharge of air from the tunnel system (VE1, VE2) 4 - room air Rectifiers 5 - System dewatering post 6 - lighting system 7 Escalator and elevator electrical system 8 - Fire Alarm System 513
