Abstract: |
Hygrothermal design of green roofs - new models and practical application.Despite challenging moisture control design issues - the German standard for moisture control excludes steady state diffusion methods from being used for vegetated roofs - green roofs have become very popular. Most frequently mentioned reasons are the attractive appearance and the improvement of the working - and living environment for the people. Therefore the percentage of green roofs among flat roofs shows a strong increase in the past years. But beside their advantages like cooling effect in the summer months, storage of rain water, protection of the roofing membrane or noise control, the application of green roofs - especially on wooden constructions - involves a certain risk of damage because of the low drying potential in the summer months. Within a research project a new model to calculate green roofs reliably by the help of hygrothermal simulations was established. |
