This paper explores the analysis of the thermal performance of roofs evaluating a green roof and compared to traditional roof systems.
Paper prototype for green roof.
Seal the roof against penetration of water water va pour and roots.
Green roof is known to be used widely in our world today because of its lot of benefits to our environment and some of them can be illustrated in the picture below.
This paper refers to the analysis of the thermal properties and energy performance study of the green roof.
The establishment of support systems drainage and waterproofing of surfaces and placement of grass along with the climate analysis used to compare the thermal performance of all roof systems.
An urban rooftop garden prototype in los angeles in a city covered by over 4 000 square miles of asphalt and cinder block the green roof movement may have just won a serious coup with synthe an urban rooftop garden prototype designed by sci arc professor and architect alexis rochas.
Intensive green roof are found in green roof it s considered to be semi intensive green roof ampim 2010.
In germany the green roof movement started in late 1970s bringing research on biodiversity roof construction technology and substrates köhler 2003 contributing to the development of the modern green roofs and design guidelines.
Many scientific researches focus on its cooling.
Green roof systems are living vegetation installed on the roofs and could contribute positively to the mitigation of urban heat island and enhancement of building thermal and environmental.
It describes briefly the green roof construction.
The green roofs were used for isolation purposes in nordic countries centuries ago.
Located atop the flat.
Green roof technology grt is the system that is used to implement green roofs on a building simultaneously dealing with strength to bear the added weight.
Due to the decrease of the thermal losses the green roofs save the energy consumption.
The investigation were implemented in two phases.
We want to lead by example here turning the roof of 1 treasury place into an urban green space which will hopefully act as a prototype for owners developers and industry when it comes to.
During the first phase extended surface and air temperature measurements were taken at the indoor.
The experiments were designed in order to test performance under both steady low intensity rainfall as well as under short duration high intensity rainfall conditions.
