General description O progreso e desenvolvemento da tecnoloxía proporciónanos novos materiais con novas características e prestacións. A súa combinación e as particularidades no seu uso en relación co proxecto arquitectónico, as necesidades, a tipoloxía, as condicións atmosféricas, a durabilidad chega a cubrir as expectativas que hoxe en día se pide a unha solución construtiva alcanzando os requirimentos que as normativas nos esixen ata chegar a culminar os requirimentos máis sofisticados.
Na evolución tecnolóxica ao servizo da edificación é imprescindible dar unha resposta que axunte nun sistema construtivo a solución á necesidade, a estética, a economía, a sustentabilidade. Con estes criterios ten unha importancia relevante a evolución de sistemas a partir da reciclaxe de subproductos.
Nesta materia preténdese estudar os materiais e sistemas construtivos evolucionados cumprindo cos stándares descritos e expondo bases que permitan ao alumno o estudo de novos materiais para a súa aplicación á edificación cun uso racional dos recursos naturais.

Methodologies
Methodologies Description
Guest lecture / keynote speech It will realize an exhibition of the contents through audiovisual means.
They will be able to organize conferences in the classroom or the assistance to sessions of notable conferences organized externamente about constructive systems evolved.
Supervised projects Along the course, the student will develop a work in team that will conclude with a brief oral presentation in front of his mates.
For his realization, it is proposed two types of alternative work between which will be able to opt. Nevertheless, the professors will orient to the student in relation with the subject that propose, and reserve the right to readjust the subjects with educational ends.

A) Development of a technical proposal of a new product, element or innovative constructive system, advanced and efficient for the edificación. Will be able to carry out two alternative strategies:
- Innovation with new materials, products or constructive elements.
- New application of a material, product or existent element (p. ej: Material of waste or by-product of the industry)

In each work, will study like minimum the following appearances:
- Description, composition and applications of the product / element / constructive system.
- Design of the resultant constructive system. Technical feasibility of the proposal.
- Durability of the proposal.
- Improvements that provides the proposal.
- Assessment of the solution of recycled of the material of waste.
- Sustainability in the industrial production of the product / element / constructive system.

B) Study of a constructive system evolved existent, composed by:
- Description of material / product / element / system used.
- Comparison with other existent constructive systems alternative.
- Assessment of the solution of recycled of the material of waste.
- Sustainability in the industrial production of the product / element / constructive system.

Each team will be able to pose freely any proposal that adjust to the general requirements established. Nevertheless, the professors will orient to the students in relation with the subject that propose, and reserve the right to readjust the subjects with educational ends.

It exists the possibility that a same work was developed jointly in the matters ?Constructive systems advanced? And ?Innovative constructive materials and efficient?. For this, the subject proposed will have to fulfill the requirements established in the educational guides of both matters simultaneously, and will have to be approved by the professors of the matter before his start. In this case, the work will have to have an extension and a level of development in accordance with the time of dedication foreseen in the planning of both matters.
Collaborative learning The system of develop the tutelage work will be a combination between the homework and the follow-up in the classroom by the professor.
The work in the classroom treats of a group of procedures of education-learning guided of face-to-face form or supported with technologies of the information and the communications, that base in the organization of the class in small groups in which the students works jointly in the resolution of tasks assigned by the professrs to optimize his own learning and the one of the others members of the group.
Oral presentation It will realize a presentation of the work in front of the mates, the professor will boost the participation in the discussion about the subject after the presentation.
It will be compulsory the presentation of an academic work writing, a presentation type power-point and a signpost summary in size A1 on cardboard feather.

Assessment comments

The subject is proposed with a system of continuous evaluation, for which is important the assistance of the student to the activities proposed. This type of evaluation develops  with the support of the personalized attention of the professor, with special importance of the work developed during the course, that concludes with the oral presentation of the work. This continuous evaluation conforms the first opportunity to pass the subject.

In case that it do not reach a minimum in the activities proposed it will offer two other options to the student that constitute the second opportunity to pass the subject: remade the work arriving to a greater technical depth of the subject treated and his presentation through the platform of teleformación in the dates designated to such effect, or the realization of a final examination.

In case that a team of students develop a same work of conjoint form in the matters "constructive Systems advanced" and "innovative constructive Materials and efficient", in both matters will correspond him the same qualification - in the corresponding parts to the tutorial work and to his oral presentation -.
