Electrochromic materials can change their properties under the influence of an electrical voltage or current. Different classes of materials show this behavior such as transition metal oxides, conjugated polymers, metal-coordinated complexes and organic molecules. As the color change is persistent, the electric field needs only to be applied to initiate the switching, allowing for applications such as low-energy consumption displays, light-adapt ...
DIN 18008 «Glas im Bauwesen – Bemessungs- und Konstruktionsregeln» wurde 2015 bauaufsichtlich eingefuhrt und lost die Nachweisfuhrung nach DIBt-Richtlinien ab. Damit liegt ein Regelwerk vor, durch welches – mit Blick auf die Einhaltung konstruktiver Bedingungen, wie z. B. Glasaufbau und Lagerung – zahlreiche Glasbauteile ohne zusatzliche Bauteilversuche realisiert werden konnen. Fur die sichere Einarbeitung in die Norm und die Erstellung pruffah ...
