As urban sites become denser and environment pressures heighten, handling rainwater effectively is becoming an important design challenge. Conventional roof systems shed water rapidly into drain networks that are typically currently under stress, adding to downstream flooding and increasing pressure on city infrastructure.
Join our upcoming AT Webinar, Blue roofing systems: opening the capacity of the fifth exterior, in partnership with IKO, to hear presentations addressing the essential questions emerging across practice:
- How can blue roofing system systems assist handle stormwater at source and decrease pressure on metropolitan drain networks?
- In what methods can rooftop attenuation strategies support compliance with Sustainable Urban Drain Systems requirements?
- How can incorporating water storage at roofing level unlock extra development capability on constrained metropolitan sites?
- What role can blue roofings play in improving long-lasting asset value for developers, financiers and occupiers?
- How can blue roofing systems be integrated with green roofs, photovoltaics and facility spaces to deliver multifunctional roofscapes?
- What technical factors to consider should develop teams address when specifying and integrating blue roofing systems?
Bringing together leading professionals from across the market, the session will check out how blue roofing systems are changing the role of the fifth exterior from a passive surface into active infrastructure– and what that indicates for the future of durable, high-performance structures.
