structural engineering
light weight building material:
reduction of pipe cross sections:
- roof drains can be reduced because of lower rain water output
- no need to replace existing pipes
cooling of the building due to:
- cooling through evaporation
- additional insulation in case of a hot dry spell
optimized height of construction due to:
combination of high-water retention and thin construction layer
physical protective layer of 7 cm:
thickness: cm 7
listed in the crb-catalogue of roofers
extended roof life due to:
- thick physical protective layer
- reduction of extreme temperature changes
less influence from the climate:
temperature-balancing effect on building components
reduces flooding in the region
reduces flooding on the property
suitable for photo voltaic systems:
- increased efficiency through cooling
- vegetationless zone around the photo voltaic system with constant water retention possible
no stale water on the roof due to integrated drainage layer
