effects of thermal insulation, growing medium and plant selection on the thermal efficacy of the installation of green roofs is proposed. This section summarizes the findings related to a number of case studies about green roofs and their thermal behaviour both monitored and modelled. Green roofs installed on non-insulated and well-insulated rooftops show distinct thermal behaviour depending on climate. The growing medium of green roofs constitutes additional thermal insulation that in…

Being placed on varying levels allows and calls for…

is relatively effective in weather controlling, thermal mass with external insulation is more efficient in avoiding heat loss during winter and preventing excessive heating during summer. After several trials, adding both roof and ceiling insulation to R4.0 is the way to achieve the best energy performance with the lowest cost. Thus, Suspended Slab-External insulation (SlabExt:) and roof insulation R4.0 and ceiling insulation R4.0 are chosen for the new roof structure (totally 32.5 ML/m2a energy…
