Living Roofs and Composed Ecology

Description

A living roof is a plant community before it is a build-up. This seminar starts with the plants: how a designed biodiverse planting is composed, how it compares with a sedum blanket and a bought-in seed mix, and why a planned community holds up over time. It then works through the build-up, loading, drainage, standards, fire safety, Part L, installation and safe access, with two real case studies. Built for architects who want to specify living roofs with confidence.
