Vegetative roof assembly details

EJ Palma | Posted in GBA Pro Help on

I am searching for the drawing details for a vegetative roof assembly. Are there any drawings on the site that I can use. I searched through the roof assembly details and I did not find any. Am I looking in the right place? Thanks for your help.

    Here are a couple of good places to get started.

    I generally use the Amerdrain system over ABC supply's MuleHyde EPDM rubber roofing system but I generally cover it all with brick as a walk surface and plant in raised bed planters (we did a Koi Pond on one roof) I like being able to dig without fear in my beds.

    I don't have any experience with the eco-grid system.

    Edward,
    Here's a useful document from a supplier of vegetative roof system components:
