This project represents an innovative application of our wall system Climablock: it served to create a concrete shell in order to improve both seismic and thermal resistance of the school. The most important detail of this intervention was that it was all applied from the outside so that the lessons could go on.
The new external wall was built following the existing old wall and properly connected to it by a serie of dowels. These dowels permits to transmit the seismic energy from the old brick wall to the reinforced one, while maintaining the old structure intact.
At the same time the thermal insulation was improved reducing heating and cooling costs.
