11:30am @ the DRC
Tremco's John Rutter will talk about "Green Vegetative Roofing"
This course will review the roofing approach known as vegetative roofing. We will explore the benefits, costs and limitations of this sustainable roofing technology as it applies to the end user, the designer and the society at large. A review of the various approaches will be presented, including extensive, semi-intensive and intensive options. The various system components of typical vegetative design will be explored including roof system options, root barriers, retention and drainage components, soils and planting options. The overall intent of the course is designed to give the participant a good functional understanding of this emerging technology.
