Green roofs, also referred to as vegetated roofs, eco roofs, and roof gardens, consist of a layer of vegetation that covers an otherwise conventional flat or moderately pitched roof. A green roof is composed of multiple layers which may include a waterproofing roof protection layer, moisture interception layer, drainage layer, leak detection layer, an engineered planting medium, and specialized plants. Through the appropriate selection of materials, green roofs can provide runoff volume reduction and runoff peak rate attenuation.
Green roofs can also be installed as a Stormwater Retrofit on existing buildings with flat, mildly sloped, or terraced roofs after confirmation of adequate structural loading capacity, waterproofing, and protection of rooftop utilities.
Moisture interception layers/root barriers are impermeable liners that protect the underlying roof deck from moisture and plant root intrusion. Some waterproofing materials are inherently root resistant, whereas others require an additional root barrier.
Green roof maintenance activities largely focus on maintaining drainage capacity and the health of vegetation. All facility components, including plant material, growing medium, filter fabric, drainage layer, and waterproof membrane must be inspected regularly for proper operations, integrity of the waterproofing, and structural stability throughout the life of the green roof.
Green Roof Waterproofing & Drainage is part two of the three-part Green Roof Professional (GRP) Training series. This course will provide you with an overview of waterproofing and drainage construction and maintenance for green roof assemblies. It lays out technical vocabulary, materials, and presents detailed design solutions and implementation best management practices for waterproofing and drainage in green roofs. Insight into the latest industry developments and research findings is provided, with reference to relevant project examples and green roof case studies.While this course can be taken alone, the material presented here can also be used in preparation for the GRP Accreditation Exam.

High-performance roof coating systems that form a seamless waterproofing membrane for superior weatherproofing, durability, flexibility, color retention and long-term protection over a variety of roof deck substrates.
A roofing underlayment is a rubberized membrane that goes under slates, copper, and shingles to prevent water penetration. It is the one piece of a roofing system that is expressly designed to be waterproof. Without an underlayment, water from wind-driven rain or ice dams can infiltrate under your roofing material and severely damage your roof,or even worse, the inside of your home.
This is an excellent article on roofing underlayments which outlines the function, design considerations, and current NRCA recommendations for the use of underlayments with your average steep-slope roof.
Only site built single family residences are included in the requirement for mitigation retrofits and/or secondary waterproofing per Florida Statute 553.844, and only sloped hipped or gable roofs are required to comply. Townhouses and duplexes are not included under the definitions of site built single family residences and are therefore exempt from the mitigation requirements. Apartment buildings, condominiums, commercial building, and new construction roofs tied to a master building permit are also exempt.
On non-exempt structures that require mandated retrofits of the roof to wall connection, the maximum required dollar cost of these improvements per Florida Statute 553.844 shall not be required beyond a 15 per cent increase of the reroofing cost. Example: Replacement of the existing roof cost is $10,000.00 X 15% = $1,500.00 this amount is required to be spent on roof to wall connection retrofits. 2ff7e9595c
