"Regina Margherita" School Complex located at Via Madonna dell'Orto 2, for seismic improvement, safety and fire protection upgrading works

School building security and structural rehabilitation plan  (Mission 4 – Component 1 - Investment 3.3)

Italy’s Recovery and Resilience Plan contributes to climate recovery also by enhancing school buildings’ safety and energy consumption. In particular, this measure aims to contribute to the improvement of energy classes and leading to lower consumption and CO2 emissions as well as to increase structural safety of buildings. Particular attention is paid to the most disadvantaged areas with the aim of tackling and eliminating economic and social imbalances.

The investment is financed by Italy’s Recovery and Resilience plan by EUR 4.4 billion.

This project is part of this investment. The main objective of the project is to ensure a safe educational environment for students and school staff through a series of interventions aimed at seismic improvement, safety and fire retrofitting of the building.
With regard to seismic improvement, work will be carried out to make the building more resistant to seismic stress. Modifications will be made to the structure of the building to increase its capacity to withstand the forces generated by an earthquake, thus reducing the risks for the direct beneficiaries.
In relation to safety, the alarm systems will be further enhanced to ensure that communication and evacuation procedures are carried out correctly in the event of an emergency.
Finally, measures will be taken to adapt the building to fire safety.

This project is financed by the Recovery and Resilience Facility with EUR 2.958.701,48.
