The CPD seminar will cover the environmental benefits of green roofs and the factors to consider when specifying one. The seminar will provide an overview of the components involved in a green roof system and the different types of green roof systems that can be specified, depending on the roof's nature and purpose. The seminar will also discuss planting methods, maintenance, fire performance and wildlife considerations, as well as the suitability of EPDM for green roofs. Finally, the seminar will conclude with case study examples of EPDM green roof projects.
