Nature Roof
Solution 1 (using Drainage Board): 0-5°
Characteristics
- Multi-layered construction design using the Optigreen Drainage Board.
- High biodiversity of flora and fauna.
- Ecologically valuable green roofing.
- Habitat for butterflies and wild bees, among others.
- Long-lasting and colorful blooming effect.
- Use of recycled plastic materials.
- Extensive and onefold intensive.
- Generally suitable for the inverted roof; if applicable, minimum load for the wind up-lift protection has to be considered.
| Weight * | 100-300 kg/m² or 1.0-3.0 KN/m² |
| Build-up depth | 100-250 mm |
| Roof pitch | 0-5° (0-9 %) |
| Vegetation form | herbs-grasses-sedum, possibly woody plants |
| Water retention | 60 - 70 % |
| Discharge coefficient ** | C=0.56 - 0.27 |
| Water storage | approx. 30 - 80 l/m² |
| Discharge yield *** | 81-168 l/s x ha |
| Ecological value |  |
| Maintenance costs |  |
| Cost factor |  |
| * | Depending on the load capacity of the substructure, Optigreen "High Density (HD)" or "Low Density (LD)" substrates can be used. Weight specifications refer to saturated conditions; dry weight is approximately 60 - 70 % of the saturated weight. |
| ** | Depends on slope and system solution. Determined at 0° according to FLL guidelines. |
| *** | Determined according to FLL discharge coefficient measurements using a 15-minute reference rainfall r(15) = 300 l/s x ha. |
