NOTE: By planning the location of power and data in the floor of this conference space, SMARTdesks mobile workstations with integral wire management can be rearranged in minutes into a classroom with 3 rows of 6 desks with center or side aisles.
2. Design #750-B Medium Multi-use Classroom (30' x 25')
  • 18-36"w stations in "U" or ring
    (or 9-72"w double desks)

NOTE: Clusters are great for labs, self-directed computer-based-training and group projects. They increase walking-around room for the teacher and the number of students accommodated comfortably.
3. Design #750-C. Medium Classroom (30' x 25')
  • 24-36"w stations in six 4-station clusters
    (or 12-72"w double desks)
  • 1-60"w instructor's station
  • 1-30"w printer/storage cabinet
  • 25 computer task chairs with arm rests
  • Recommended Series (monitor configuration):
    • LV Level™ LCD (shown)
    • SR Semi-Recessed CRT
    • FP Semi-Recessed LCD
    • SS Sub-Surface CRT

NOTE: More efficient use of space incorporates the least number of aisles and desks arranged in back-to-back configuration.
4. Design #750-D. Medium Classroom (30' x 25')
  • 24-36"w stations in four 6-station clusters
    (or 4-36" single desks + 8-72"w double desks)
  • 1-60"w instructor's station
  • 1-30"w printer/storage cabinet
  • 25 computer task chairs with arm rests
  • Recommended Series (monitor configuration):
    • LV Level™ LCD (shown)
    • SR Semi-Recessed CRT
    • FP Semi-Recessed LCD
    • SS Sub-Surface CRT

NOTE: Generally, we try to avoid situations where students have to walk behind more than 4 classmates to an aisle. In this case, the distance to adjacent walls and between the chair backs is greater than normally required.
5. Design #750-E. Medium Classroom (30' x 25')
  • 30-36"w stations in two back-to-back rows
    (or 2-36"w single desks + 12-72"w double desks)
  • 1-60"w instructor's station
  • 1-30"w printer/storage cabinet
  • 31 computer task chairs with arm rests
  • Recommended Series (monitor configuration):
    • LV Level™ LCD (shown)
    • SR Semi-Recessed CRT
    • FP Semi-Recessed LCD
    • SS Sub-Surface CRT
click to enlarge

NOTE: Generally, for a 30" deep computer desk, allow 72" per row - 12" for the keyboard tray and 30" for the chair and space to pass behind it. Footprint may be reduced by as much as 6" but is not recommended.
6. Design #750-F. Medium Classroom (30' x 25')
  • 28-36"w stations in four staggered rows, 48" center aisle
    (or 4-36"w single desks + 12-72"w double desks)
  • 1-72"w instructor's station
  • 1-30"w printer/storage cabinet
  • 29 computer task chairs with arm rests
  • Recommended Series (monitor configuration):
    • LV Level™ LCD (shown)
    • SR Semi-Recessed CRT
    • FP Semi-Recessed LCD
    • SS Sub-Surface CRT

NOTE 1: Curved rows offer a better view of presentations, larger work areas and enhanced classroom interaction. They fill a large space without lack of intimacy or crowding. Allow 6' (min) per row. Expect a great response from students.

7. Design #750-G. Medium Classroom (30' x 25')
  • 18-36"w stations in three concentric rings
  • 4-30o angle connectors
  • 5-15o angle connectors
  • 6-10o angle connectors
  • 1-60"w instructor's station
  • 1-30"w printer/storage cabinet
  • 19 computer task chairs with arm rests
  • Recommended Series (monitor configuration):
    • LV Level™ LCD (shown)
    • SR Semi-Recessed CRT
    • FP Semi-Recessed LCD
    • SS Sub-Surface CRT
