GREEN ROOF APPLICATION

Green Roof
A green roof is a vegetative layer grown on a rooftop of a building. Also known
as roof gardens, these green roofs serve as a large contributor to energy
efficiency of buildings.
Green roofs reduce the temperature of the building and the surrounding air in
multiple ways:
Shading: They provide shade to the top of a building
Evapotranspiration: the plants in a green roof absorb water through their roots,
and then use surrounding heat from the air to evaporate the water

Features of a Green Roof (Green Building Alliance, n.d)

• Vegetation: The top layer of a green roof consists of vegetation. Chosen
plants should be based on the type of roof, surrounding climate, and
condition of the building. For flatter roofs and stronger buildings, taller
and heavier vegetation can be used. Lighter and shorter vegetation is
recommended for slanted roofs.
• Growing Medium: The growing medium is the foundation for all the
vegetation on the top later. The medium type, mixture and depth area all
depend on the plants chosen for the green roof. A wind erosion layer,
 commonly made of burlap jute blankets, can also be installed to prevent
wind from blowing top soil off the roof.
• Root Barrier: Root barriers are associated with deep-rooted plants such
as trees and shrubs. A root barrier prevents roots from reaching the
membrane on the bottom layer, which when punctured, could potentially
cause roof leaks and decay. Common materials used for this layer are foil
or plastic.
• Drainage: A drainage layer is installed to adequately remove excess water
from a green roof. Green Roof Solutions states that drainage systems are
designed to ensure storm water can be used by the top plants for
extended periods of time without oversaturation of the entire green roof
system. Note that this layer can also be found above the root barrier layer
as well.
• Insulation: The insulation layer is the protector of the membrane layer
below. The insulation prevents the weight of the green roof from crushing
the insulation and impairing the membrane. A lightweight extensive
green roof can include insulation below the membrane.
• Membrane Protection: The roof’s membrane needs protection to
prevent deterioration. The protective layer can be a slab of lightweight
concrete, insulation, thick plastic, copper foil or any combination of these.
• Membrane: A membrane is the bottommost layer of a green roof and is
the main separation between the green roof above and the structural
supports below. Due to the excessive water amounts associated with
green roofs, the membrane must be strong enough to support this water
weight and to not let it seep through.

Benefits of Green Roofs (Green Building Alliance, n.d)

• Aesthetic Improvement: Aside from their sustainable aspects, green
roofs can be a beautiful addition to any building and can be designed to
become a public area for building occupants and guests. Greenroofs.com
states that these public areas can increase a sense of community and
overall public safety!
• Energy Reduction: The needs for heating and cooling a structure reduce
drastically due to the thermal efficiency of green roofs. Acting as natural
 shade and a heat-absorber for a building, a green roof can significantly
reduce cooling costs by as much as 25%. This may depend on the type of
climate your building is located in.
• Increased Market Value: Installation of a green roof has been shown to
increase the marketability of a building and add a value of 6%-15%.
Significant aesthetic effects accrue to the owner, occupants, and the
surrounding community.
• LEED Certification Points: A green roof has the potential of earning LEED
points for a building in multiple credit categories.
• Moderate the Urban Heat Island Effect: The urban heat island effect is
created when green space is replaced by buildings and hardscape, which
tend to absorb heat at higher rates. This results in urban areas being
hotter than nearby rural areas. The heat primarily comes from rooftops in
urban areas since they are commonly painted black or other dark colors
(which absorb heat rather than reflect it). Therefore, the installation of
green roofs can lower the surrounding air temperature and help
moderate the urban heat island effect³.
• Reduced Air Pollution: The reduced energy demand from green roofs
reduces air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions related to energy
production. Plants also remove air pollutants and greenhouse gas
emissions through two processes: dry deposition and carbon
sequestration and storage. Lastly, green roofs help slow the rate of ozone
formation by reducing overall air temperatures.
• Saved costs: Although installation costs are higher than traditional roofs,
the lifespan and low maintenance of a green roof can result in vast cost
savings. Research from the University of Michigan showed that with initial
roof costs of a green roof and a conventional roof relatively being
$464,000 and $335,000, the green roof would save around $200,000 over
its lifetime²! People can also install green roofs on their own, cutting down
the costs significantly!
• Stormwater Management: Green roofs – depending on size, density, and
type – can capture stormwater and return it to the atmosphere through
transpiration and evaporation. According to greenroofs.org, 70-90% of
precipitation can be retained in the summertime, and 25-40% in the
winter time. Green roofs can also reduce stormwater runoff by holding
 water within the substrate and therefore delaying the runoff time. By
having a green roof, buildings could also eliminate roof drains and other
stormwater management infrastructure.
• Urban Food Production: Green roofs provide the possibility of growing
edible gardens on top of buildings! Local and convenient, green roofs can
source food just above occupants’ heads. Urban food production reduces
the woes of long-distance food supply. They also contribute to
community nutrition and social interaction.

Bosco Verticale

Cost £48,867,769
Internal area 28,134 m²
Cost per m² £1,736 / m²
Milan’s Il Bosco Verticale (the Vertical Forest) is a new approach to high rise
buildings in which trees and humans co-exist. In essence it is an architectural
concept which replaces traditional materials on urban surfaces using the
changing polychromy of leaves for its walls. (RIBA, n.d)
This is an approach that contributes to the regeneration of the environment and
urban biodiversity, without expanding the territory of the city. (RIBA, n.d)
Arriving at the right selection of vegetation took years of testing. Plants had two
years of observation to determine which were most resilient for the conditions.
Species and specific strains were chosen not only based on the climate and sun
conditions but also in their ability to resist simulated wind tunnel test. The size
of the trees is controlled by the volumetric dimensions of the planter base thus
only plants needed to be able to survive the constrictive bases. From the plants
tested during the two-year period only the strongest 80% were then planted.
(RIBA, n.d)
The Bosco Verticale hosts 800 trees (each measuring 3, 6 or 9 meters), 4,500
bushes, and 15,000 plants from a wide range of shrubs and floral plants
distributed according to the sun exposure of each facade. In addition to
evergreen species, deciduous tree specimens include beeches, yellow acacias,
oaks, maples, ash trees, ferns and ivy, which were arranged on the four different
façades of the two skyscrapers. (Velazques, 2019)

URBANSCAPE® GREEN ROOF SYSTEM (urbanscape, n.d)

A complete, lightweight and easy to

install system with high water
retention capacity designed for
green roofs on residential, non-
residential and industrial buildings
and urban areas.
Urbanscape® Green Roof is a
complete system, which consists of
a root membrane, a drainage system, a growing media – a unique patented rock
mineral wool – and a vegetation layer.
High-quality built environments create spaces for living and working as well as
for education, art, and commerce – thereby enriching urban life and the
cityscape. In construction of non-residential buildings, prefabricated building
elements are widely used. Key requirements which determine the design of such
buildings are energy efficiency, low noise pollution and fire safety.
Green roofs have a high potential for improving these kinds of sandwich panel
buildings and their flat roofs. They promise a wide variety of benefits for the
employees and the owners alike. They:
• contribute to climate protection and aspects of nature conservation,
• act as water management tools,
• protect the core roof materials from being damaged by ultraviolet
radiation and rapid temperature changes,
• reduce the energy needs of the buildings (for heating and cooling)
• add value to the property itself.
The URBANSCAPE® Green Roof System is an optimal solution for all flat roof
sandwich panel buildings and furthermore, a great idea for converting roofs into
a place of rest. At the same time, it enriches the visual urban experience in many
ways.

Sedum vegetated green roof designed by Urbanscape can be up to six times

lighter than traditional green roof systems. This
lightness means most buildings have a comfortable
load-bearing capacity that is sufficient, and architects
can even plan green roofs where it had not been
possible before, such as on lightweight metal
constructions. They can also be much thinner without
compromising the performance, as Urbanscape® Green
Roll growing media can hold up to 3-4 times more water
per its volume than other green roof substrates.

ACROS Building
The building was constructed on the
last remaining green space in the city
center, so the architects, Emilio
Ambasz & Associates, created a
design to preserve the green space
as much as possible, while still fitting
in a large office building. In addition,
a green roof reduces the energy
consumption of a building, because it
keeps the temperature inside more
constant and comfortable. Green
roofs also capture rainwater runoff, and support the life of insects and birds.
(ACROS Fukuoka building)
ACROS has a steps garden that runs up the façade of the building in the shape
of a staircase. The south side of the building is constructed from fifteen levels
that lead up to the observation deck. The vegetation also attracts a large number
of birds. One of the most fascinating aspects of this garden is how the irrigation
system was designed.
The ACROS building uses the same design of a mountain in terms of water
drainage. This allows natural irrigation to occur as water streams down from the
top of the building. The vegetation is watered on the way down. On each level
there is a pool where the water collects. The water streaming down from the
top fills up the pools. Once a pool has reached its capacity it overflows and fills
up the pool below. This is how water is filtered throughout the garden. Beyond
the purpose of watering the garden this system has another benefit. It allows
for cooling of the roof area, which means that in summer less air conditioning is
needed. This also means that CO2 emissions are reduced though I am not sure
by how much. (JapanTravel Guest, 2013)

DESIGN INTENT 2
FLOOD RESILIENCE

3 High-Rise Building Strategies to Improve Flood Resilience

One of the most effective tactics to combat climate change-driven floods
is by altering multi-story structures by building up. This process is a way to
keep buildings operational year-round, even when extreme climate events
occur (Nigro, 2021).
Furthermore, he added the three strategies to improve flood resilience
among high rise buildings, which are:

1. Building Up to Operate in a Flood Zone

Since the implementation of Appendix G, building up has changed the way
multi-story buildings are designed and operated across New York City. One
of the regulations of Appendix G calls for MEP systems to be installed
above “flood elevation” according to the building’s proximity to mapped
flood zones — three feet higher than the highest expected flooding event.
What seems like a minor adjustment will have major implications for
residential and commercial buildings. In existing buildings, space needs to
be created on higher floors for the relocation of MEP equipment.
Relocating MEP equipment does present challenges because the floors
were not designed and built to accommodate heavy loads and sometimes,
they don’t have the required structural strength to support such
equipment. If that is the case, other options would be to relocate the
equipment on watertight enclosures located outside of the building, but
within the same site.

2. Taking Advantage of Roof Space

To ensure buildings maintain power during flooding, buildings must take
advantage of the space on the roof. In new buildings, basements will no
longer house mechanical systems. Utilizing underground floors for
mechanical purposes was an ideal strategy for developers and tenants
because the noise of the machines and equipment would not be audible
by tenants. By moving the mechanical equipment on the roof, developers
will be able to comply with zoning regulations and not sacrifice useful
square footage that they could charge rent for elsewhere in the building.

Following Hurricane Sandy, roofs have been better utilized by building

managers of all types to keep their properties running smoothly. During
the 2012 hurricane in New York City, hospitals and other large structures
lost power because emergency generators were positioned in building
basements. To avoid future power outages, hospitals have installed
emergency generators on their roofs in weather-protected, fire-rated steel
housing, guaranteeing power during extreme weather conditions. We have
already seen residential towers in New York City mimic this idea by
installing emergency generators on floors normally reserved for
penthouses.

3. Building Water Management Systems

For buildings to perform optimally during floods, not only does critical
equipment need to be moved to higher floors, but the infrastructure of the
building must actively work to disperse and absorb excess water. Building
infrastructure must include pipes and capacious stormwater retention and
detention tanks that will slow down the water flow being pumped into the
city’s storm sewer system when the rain subsides. Without these systems,
a building might experience water leaks and excess standing water, leading
to corrosion, structural and equipment damage and related repairs.
Subsequently, parts of these buildings may need to be closed off to tenants
because of safety concerns.

Other water management strategies include using green infrastructure and

absorptive paving materials. The need for structural stability in sidewalks,
roadways, and parking areas have promoted the use of high compaction
and low porosity materials which lead to low-water absorption and high-
volume runoffs. On the other hand, suspended pavement systems can
create a strong substrate in these areas, while allowing for bioretention
and high-water absorption through its matrix of uncompacted soil.
Additionally, green infrastructure elements in landscaped areas such as
wet swales, sponge parks and green roofs can greatly improve a site’s
capacity to absorb water.
As FEMA Flood projection maps show us, routine flooding will become
more frequent and extensive in New York City. Moving forward, architects,
engineers, construction managers, and facility managers need to adopt
new government codes and regulations to reconfigure the way buildings
are designed to ensure occupants’ safety and the upkeep of their
structures.

Design approaches and flood resilient design and

construction
This document, based on evidence from laboratory tests, technical
evidence and industry experience, helps a designer to determine the best
option or design strategy for flood management at a building site level
from knowledge of basic flood parameters (e.g. depth, frequency and
duration) which would normally be determined in a flood risk assessment
at the planning stage. Depending on these parameters (in particular flood
depth) and after utilizing options for flood avoidance at site level, designers
may adopt a water exclusion strategy or a water entry strategy as
illustrated in the figure below: (Bowker, Escarameia, & Tagg, 2007)

SUSTAINABLE APPROACH

BIPV

AINTREE PARK MIXED USE (PHOTOVOLTAIC FAÇADE)

Located at 1432 Malvern Road and composed of 12 luxury
apartments, The Aintree Park residential development provides smart
living solutions for the Melbourne market
and introduces a new level of intelligently
designed apartments to reflect the
prestige of its Glen Iris locale. The
structure includes a high level of
sustainable & energy-efficient initiatives
throughout.
The building is the first in Australia to
use solar photovoltaic glass on a façade –
providing a high quality, 7.5-star energy
rated, sustainable alternative to typical apartment buildings.
Situated on High Street, means its location facilitates the major
activity & community hubs of the inner north of Melbourne. As this area is
heavily gentrified, entry into the suburb is becoming less affordable for
those seeking to make it home. One of the main differentiators of The
General was that it would be the first building of its size to offer a response
to this issue.

DESIGN INTENT 4
RAINWATER HARVESTING

If the rainwater is to be used in the home, it must first be cleansed. To remove bacteria,
organic debris, and substances that develop films on surfaces or fall to the bottom of the
tanks as mud, coagulants, settlement, and can use biofilm skimming. A pure hydroxide
solution could be applied to the incoming freshwater to bind tiny-dissolved particles into
larger particles that can eliminate through settling and filtering. The drinking water is free
from undesirable color, turbidity (cloudiness), and aluminum (Encyclopedia
Britannica, 2019).
For instance, Uganda, according to the UN Development Assistance Framework for Uganda
2010-2014 reports, about 780 million people lack access to improved water supply sources.

Other solutions like subsurface dams, ponds, and floodwater buffers are also being promoted
and rainwater collection in offices, schools, hospitals, and homes. Sand dams are one of the
prototype methods now being implemented. Flooding is common in many parts of Uganda;
thus, robust solutions to extract this abundant water are now being designed.
