Blue Green Roof Drainage - Making Sustainable Urban Environments a Reality - October 2024

ACO invite you this CPD that will challenge your perception about Blue Roof design.

This session will help architects, roofing contractors and engineers understand more about

• What is the function of a blue roof attenuation system and the engineering disciplines required for successful delivery?
• How a blue roof should be seen as an attenuation system within the roof build up, and not as a roof waterproofing system.
• How blue roofs can complement green infrastructure.
• Define the different types of blue roof build ups and explain key drainage design considerations.
• How ACO can help you with warranty issues in partnership with others and improve resilience of the blue roof attenuation system that will help you meet planning conditions.
• Outline the best way to design a blue roof that can drain slowly in normal use and quickly in extreme circumstances.

Delivered by ACO’s in-house blue roof design expert – Neill Robinson-Welsh – this webinar CPD will illustrate how to design a blue/green roof which can meet the flat roof design standards under BS EN 12056-3:2000 and meet planning conditions without compromising either requirement.

This event counts as 1 hour CPD and is CPDSO accredited
