En situación de incendio, los elementos estructurales de madera laminada encolada (?MLE?) sufren una degradación térmica que les lleva a una pérdida de sección portante. El Código Técnico de la Edificación cuantifica esta pérdida en 0,55 - 0,70 mm/min por cada cara sometida a carga, según especie y densidad, pero no propone una metodología específica para el cálculo de uniones carpinteras en situación de incendio. Para conocer el comportamiento de este tipo de uniones en situación de incendio, la Plataforma de Ingeniería de la Madera Estructural (PEMADE) de la Universidad de Santiago de Compostela, el Instituto de Ciencias de la Construcción Eduardo Torroja y el Centro Tecnológico CIDEMCO-Tecnalia han realizado conjuntamente una serie de ensayos experimentales sobre probetas ensambladas con unión carpintera del tipo cola de milano. Se han sometido las probetas a cargas térmicas variantes en el tiempo siguiendo la norma ISO 834-1, tal y como indica el CTE. Se registró usando termopares la variación de la temperatura a lo largo de la duración del ensayo. En este trabajo se expone en detalle la metodología desarrollada para realizar los ensayos, así como los primeros resultados obtenidos. In a fire event, glued laminated timber ("GLULAM") elements suffer a thermal degradation that produces in them a decrease of bearing section. Spanish technical building normative (?CTE?) quantify this decreasing from 0.55 to 0.70 mm / min according to species and density, but does not propose a specific methodology for calculating carpenter joints in a fire situation. In order to understand the behavior of such joints in a fire situation, the Platform for Structural Timber Engineering (PEMADE) of University of Santiago de Compostela; Institute of Science Construction Eduardo Torroja and Technology Center CIDEMCO-Tecnalia conducted together a series of experimental tests on glulam specimens assembled with a carpenter union type called ?dovetail?. Specimens were subjected to thermal loads varying in time according to ISO 834-1, as indicated by the CTE. Thermocouples were inserted in the specimens, recording the temperature variation along the length of the test. This paper details the methodology developed for the test and the first results.

The banking industry is observing how new competitors threaten its millennial business model by targeting unbanked people, offering new financial services to their customer base, and even enabling new channels for existing services and customers. The knowledge on users, their behaviour, and expectations become a key asset in this new context. Well aware of this situation, the Center for Open Middleware, a joint technology center created by Santander Bank and Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, has launched a set of initiatives to allow the experimental analysis and management of socio-economic information. PosdataP2P service is one of them, which seeks to model the economic ties between the holders of university smart cards, leveraging on the social networks the holders are subscribed to. In this paper we describe the design principles guiding the development of the system, its architecture and some implementation details.
