| Abstract: | Teaching Building Materials is a subject where continuous update is required, as the industry constantly innovates. Technical Assessment of innovative construction products, is an activity leaded in Spain by IETcc since 1963. DIT, ETE and DIT plus are documents issued by IETcc for these non-standardized products resulting from voluntary favourable technical assessments. But nevertheless, it is a subject not well known by Architecture or Engineering undergraduate students. To save this gap several seminars have been carried out. Even a brand new webpage http://dit.ietcc.csic.es have been recently launched. Nevertheless, its potential as a teaching tool for Building Materials has not been considered. This webpage provides not only information about the history of the innovation assessment, but also, about what questions the mentioned Documents purposes and how to obtain them. Also, its free download is allowed. This permits users, once confirmed that the product is not standardized, to solve doubts about prescription, installation or aplicable Regulations. In particular, an example is presented regarding the technical assessment of cladding kits made of aluminium composite panels. Once finding criteria are set, like work unit (façade) or type of Document, the webpage show among others, the main following information: Existing Documents in pdf format DIT, ETE and DIT plus, even in English version, and particularly, the so called "PIA", Puntos de Interes Arquitectónico or Point of Architectural Interest" where images of existing buildings can be found in order to illustrate the final result of the product or kit once installed. A further development is intended to be allowed this web page, which would may include, as examples, build-up videos, test laboratory photographies. The use of this webpage will not only to avoid barriers to innovation but to promote innovation since the early stages of the formation of the future actors in the Building sector. |
