This type of green roof finish is used predominantly on courtyard podiums with heavy vehicular access and where keeping the total build-up height of the system, together with providing a completely flat paved surface is important in helping to reduce construction costs. This can be particularly effective when used to provide a permeable paving system.

Whatever the nature of your intensive green roof requirement, we would always recommend that you seek advice from the Bauder technical services department, to ensure that you achieve the optimum solution for your project, both on a performance and cost basis.

Creating pathways for pedestrian access and vehicular roadways for heavily trafficked areas with either moderate weight loadings or heavy loadings.

In applications where footpaths and roadways are required a drainage board is infilled to provide a stable base for construction capable of supporting the foot/vehicle traffic expected and to allow for uninterrupted drainage beneath the hard landscaping.

Hard landscaping for moderate loadings

This system is ideal for hard landscaping intensive green roof applications such as decking and paving where the anticipated loading is moderate.

Hard landscaping for heavy traffic areas

When the roof structure allows, hard landscaping can be designed to allow for vehicular access and the associated dynamic higher-weight loading.

Plus points

• Ideal construction base for permeable or bedded surfaces including roadways and paving
• Creates low-maintenance accessible spaces
• Versatile visual finishes
• Planter-held vegetation as well as full complement of landscaping
