The aim of this article is to analyze green roof structures, researching of modular green roof systems and adjusting of optimal physical parameters of green roof modules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Modular green roof technology is an attractive and energy-saving alternative to a conventional green roof structures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Modular green roof systems have a multiplicity advantages over roll-out roofs:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">1. Lightweight structural elements are prefabricated and pre-assembled before on-site setting up<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2. Integration of energy collecting and converting devices and accessories such as solar panels, lights, automatic watering and decorative elements<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">3. Accessibility, as each module can be carried by one person, that allows maintenance green roof without complete dismantling of the system<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">4. Ecological and recyclable materials trays in combination with natural components of vegetative system as a greater protection of the environment<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">5. Easy access of cables, piping via a technical space for the entire year<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">6. Prevention of soil creep (horizontal ruled out for rain water)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">7. Effective storm water management, that allows to collect the optimum amount of rainwater, which is due to a specially designed shape of the modules<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">8. Flexibility and simplicity in design<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">9. Aesthetic appeal of the green roof space and unique design, that allows architect to create a great variety of roof configurations and wide array of customization.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The analysis was able to obtain that the optimal sizes and optimal physical parameters of green roof modules to provide the least-time laborious installation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Modular green roofs provide environmental, technical and well-being benefits and, as they relate to sustainable practices, help accomplish a variety of sustainable goals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The economic benefit brought about by participation in agriculture roofing comes in a variety of forms, including the job creation, supplementation of family income and saving money by not purchasing food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Eco-roof systems can provide amenity benefits, creating a habitat for wildlife and helping to urban ecology by mitigating the heat island effect. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Modular green roof system is advanced green building technology of the near future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Green modules are the easiest and fastest way to have a Green roofs Both for flat and sloping roofs.
