All kinds of rainfall can be simulated in this lab.
Roof detention system.
The goal of a detention oriented green roof is to delay peak runoff so that sewage systems have time to drain.
Blue roofs are non vegetated source controls that detain stormwater either releasing it more gradually to the sewer system or storing it for beneficial reuse.
This roof can then detain 2 5 5cm 1 2 of water for anywhere between 1 10 hours.
Rooftop detention also known as a blue roof is designed to provide temporary storage and slow release of stormwater runoff.
It is a relatively simple concept that results in a controlled flow system of rainwater from the roof.
When used with control flow drains roofblue expands the usefulness of a green roof system as a stormwater management tool.
Instead of running off the roof via gutters and downpipes the water is temporarily stored or allowed to pond on the surface and then released slowly so that it can drain away gradually.
It is used for lightweight green roofs terraces and has many functions.
It is made of a filtration veil and the polyamide monofilament fibre network layer.
The urbanscape detention green roof is a complete system which consists of a detention layer storage layer a growing media a unique patented rock mineral wool and a vegetation layer.
The liveroof integrated roofblue riser is engineered to provide temporary water detention underneath all liveroof systems.
Reduce the burden on stormwater systems.
Protection drainage and filtration.
It has been evaluated and tested by green roof diagnostics.
Urbanscape detention layer t5.
For a detention facility where the outflow is controlled by means of an outlet orifice tube subject to a head which increases as the depth of storage increases in a storage facility with an approximately uniform area with respect to storage height and for roof detention by means of.
Over 500 different tests were carried out on various green roof structures commissioned by independent international partners from the construction industry.
Almost all of the rain that falls onto a fully saturated profile will quickly drain through and flow underneath a traditional green roof profile.
Bauder sdf drainage layer one side laminated version is also avaliable.
Roofblue can do the following.
Purple roof is the simplest and least expensive solution if you would like a detention green roof.
It is this delay that what saves us from floods.
The foundation of the detention roof lies in the green roof diagnostics research laboratory in virginia usa.
A standard sponge roof can be upgraded from a retention oriented green roof to a detention retention oriented green roof for 10 20 m 2 1 2 sqft.
