Materials commonly used in the build of a extensive Green Roof

When we refer to "Materials" there are a number of different types of Green Roof materials, such as the plant material, roof filter material, drain material and root barrier. Each of these corresponds to a functional layer within a Green Roof build up.

Please refer to this picture to visualize these materials and the placement. Click on the links below for more information.
