Blue - Green Roofs: Design to Practice

In this webinar Tom Young, TEP and Rod Green, Pluvium Environmental present how green and blue roofs are constructed, key design considerations, additional features that can be added onto their design and their benefits, and long-term maintenance. Tom and Rod use examples from around the world to showcase exemplar green and blue designs, and how these can be achieved with minimal design alterations. They also discuss how green and blue roofs can be combined to create blue-green roofs which utilises stored rainwater to then irrigate the green roof passively, further expanding the landscape potential of the green roof, and improving drainage characteristics of the blue-green roof.
