Building of the connection Strand and Classroom blocks for the University Campus in the area of former G.B. Morgagni Hospital of Forlì – 2^nd phase, first lot

The Teaching Hub, made up of the “Strand” and the classroom blocks, is the heart of the Forlì University Campus. It includes four elements, all newly built: the three didactic blocks and the element known as “Strand”, which is the pedestrian path connecting the three blocks, contains some study rooms for students and represents the spine of the whole university system, connecting the restored pavilions with Viale Corridoni. It is the most complex element, both due to its geometry and to the construction elements it includes. The three blocks contain 16 classrooms, for a total of 2,670 seats. Besides being the main connection element of the system, the Strand contains a refreshment area and relax areas of suitable sizes to host group study areas and individual study areas, for a total of 470 seats along the three “pipes”, all with infrastructure and cable connections.
