This is the lightest weight all in one system available.
Sedum roof thickness.
Provides an immediate green planting scheme for instant impact.
Xf301 sedum blanket extensive green roof system when to specify.
Sedum plants grown on matting will generate a loading of 60kg per square metre whereas a 10 15cm depth of growing medium for a broader range of plant species will generate a loading of around 250kg per square metre.
Where a sedum roof is to be installed on an inverted roofs or other specially shaped roofs fitted with thermal insulation above the waterproofing attention.
The system is suitable for both new build construction and retrofit refurbishment projects.
This is also why sedums are so suitable as green roof vegetation especially on extensive living roofs.
An extensive lightweight green roof system utilising a pre grown vegetation mat of 8 12 sedum species.
The cooling effect of the roof greening has the potential to affect the physical construction of the building so ensure that this risk has been assessed.
The shallow soil layer is sensitive to the external environment such as temperature fluctuations and drought.
The vegetation is self sufficient growing and developing to provide protection absorb carbon dioxide and creating a point of interest.
Extensive living roofs have a very thin soil layer ranging in depth from 2 13cm 0 8 5in.
A sedum roof is a type of living roof consisting of a layer of vegetation that has been placed on a rooftop.
An extensive green roof or sedum roof is a roof with vegetation that is more or less self perpetuating and that can further develop and maintain itself.
It comprises mature sedum on 20mm of extensive substrate and incorporating a multifunctional water retention and filter layer.
The vegetation mat is installed on a shallow depth of specially formulated free draining substrate and drainage board.
Roughly speaking extensive green roofs have a substrate thickness of between 4 and 15 cm and a weight of 30 to 220 kilo per m2.
