Application of energy dissipators with recentering technology in the Seismic Design of Structures: Contributions of PhD. David Galé, speaker of the Technical Unit of Innovative Products (DIT) of the IETcc-CSIC
We are proud to announce the publication by our colleague David Galé of a new scientific article in the prestigious Journal of Building Engineering specialized in structural issues. Dr. Galé and the rest of the authors, contribute from their experience in the field of research, new data to the Seismic Design of Structures using metallic Energy Dissipators and with recentering technology, and shares them with all of us through said article.
In his research, he has carried out an experimental study with a seismic table with the objective of characterizing the earthquake-resistant capacity of buildings with pillars with reticular slabs (very common in Spain) supplemented with energy dissipators based on the plasticization of metallic elements in combination with NiTi bars capable of recentering the dissipator once the earthquake has ended. In addition, it compares said capacity with the seismic resistance capacity of the same structural type without energy dissipators, showing quantitatively the improvement in seismic performance that the incorporation of energy dissipators contributes to this type of structure.

Presentation of the Technology, Data and Innovation Forum. Industry 4.0 Technological Building.
The starting of Construtec on Tuesday the 15th has been a success in terms of capacity and participation of the general public in the different forums set up by the organization for this edition.
The Innovative Products Evaluation Unit has been in charge of presenting the FORUM “Technology, Data and Innovation. Industry 4.0 Technological Building”.
Through a didactic presentation, Dr. Antonio Blázquez, Head of the Innovative products´ assessment Unit, emphasized the three major actors in the Innovation processes: Design in the hands of architects, engineers and professionals in permanent search for the best solutions constructive, Products where manufacturers and installers seek maximum efficiency in terms of costs and benefits and the intervention of public institutions such as regulatory bodies.
At the end of the presentation, all the questions from the attendees about the documents that support innovation (DIT/DITPLUS/DITEX/ETE) were answered.

From November 15 to 18, 2022: IETcc-CSIC at CONSTRUTEC 2022
From November 15 to 18, 2022, the CONSTRUTEC 2022 Fair will take place at IFEMA (Madrid). A benchmark event in southern Europe for the Construction Materials, Techniques and Systems industry for the Building Industry. Construtec focuses on the entire life cycle of the building. Its mission is to be the sector instrument at the service of the European building industry, to add value to society, promoting comfortable, sustainable, safe and healthy living environments.
The Eduardo Torroja Institute of Construction Sciences (CSIC), is an organizing member of CONSTRUTEC and among the activities it develops is that of facilitating innovation in the construction sector through technical evaluations of innovative products: DIT, DIT plus, DITex and ETE/ETA. In this context, the IETcc-CSIC actively collaborates by organizing events of great interest to architects, engineers, prescribers, construction managers, technical control bodies, construction companies, promoters, as well as suppliers of construction products (manufacturers, etc.). In particular, we highlight the following:
– Personalized public attention at our stand 8F21 (Hall 8), providing information on our Documents: DIT, ETE and DIT plus throughout the duration of the Fair.
– Tuesday, November 15. From 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. in LAPLÃZA (between pavilions 5 and 6). Presentation of the Technology, Data and Innovation Forum, Industry 4.0 & Technological Building. From a participatory approach, the objective is focused on resolving all the doubts that both manufacturers and installers may have on these issues.
– Wednesday November 16 from 11.00 to 13.00 Round Table: New materials and insurers (Insurance and OCT). The future of construction, especially after the pandemic, lies in building safer and more sustainable buildings and infrastructure. To do this, the use of new materials in construction is key, because in the face of scarce resources, reuse and the exploration of new materials is imposed. And it is here where the insurance companies and OCT need to analyze the risks in detail and seek the appropriate guarantees in the use of these materials or new constructive forms.
From the Unit we encourage all those professionals in the sector to participate in Construtec to keep up to date with news, innovations, new construction regulations and future challenges.

ANDALUSIAN ROAD CONGRESS: TOWARDS THE NEXT GENERATION OF ROADS.
IETcc-CSIC, in particular the Innovative Products Assessment Unit (DIT-ETA) participates in the V ANDALUSIAN ROAD CONGRESS, which will take place from 6th to 8th April 2022.
With the motto, “Towards the next generation of roads”, the Spanish Road Association (AEC) resumes the organization of this great road meeting. In this fifth edition, key questions about the improvement of road safety and roads with a “green seal”, among others, will be discussed. The aim of this Congress is to create synergies between the different actors in the industry, and strategically boost road infrastructures from different perspectives.
The Innovative Products Assessment Unit IETcc-CSIC will have a stand where we will show the works of the IETcc as well as the products and construction systems related to roads and civil engineering that have achieved National Approvals (DIT) or European Technical Assessments (ETA). We will share with our visitors our point on the contribution of these assessments to the quality, safety and sustainability of civil works infrastructures.
In addition to informing all those companies and manufacturers that wish to know about the processes for obtaining the DIT or the ETA, we will be available at our stand during the three Congress days to inform and resolve the doubts of the road managers and administration technicians about the scope of these assessments and the contribution in their different competencies.
About the Eduardo Torroja Construction Sciences Institute (IETcc-CSIC)
The IETcc is a Technical Assessment Body (TAB) and a Notified Body (NB) for the technical assessment of road marking products, as well as for Factory Production Control to assess the Constancy of performances of these products. Undergoing these procedures, manufacturers are able to CE mark their products, which is required in the Spanish Roads Code and in some local or regional contracting processes. This certification is also required by the authorities of other EU countries, with the forecast that it will be also necessary for the application of road marking products in other member States in the coming years.
Concerning National Approvals, IETcc issues Technical Approval Documents (DIT), which are favorable technical assessments of the suitability for use in construction of non-traditional materials, systems or procedures intended for an specific use. These Documents involve a technical evaluation of suitability for use that since December 2019 the Spanish Roads Code requires, for example, for some components of SMA-type bituminous mixtures.

NEW PARADIGM OF SEISMIC DESIGN OF STRUCTURES: CONTRIBUTIONS OF DR. DAVID GALÉ, SPEAKER OF THE TECHNICAL UNIT OF INNOVATIVE PRODUCTS (DIT) OF IETCC-CSIC
We are proud to announce the publication by our colleague David Gale, of a new scientific article in the prestigious journal Engineering Structures specialized in structural issues. Dr. Galé, from his experience in the field of research, brings new data to the Seismic Design of Structures based on Energy, and shares them with all of us through this article.
In his research, he has carried out a numerical study on the capacity of column structures with waffle slabs (very common in Spain) in terms of energy. The Seismic Design of Structures is currently based on Forces, although more and more progress is being made in the Energy-based Seismic Design Paradigm.
This way of designing, based on energy, is highly promising because it allows a design capable of synthesizing the complex 3D loading effects in a scalar value, as well as achieving an optimal damage distribution along the structure.
