When Green Turns to Blue: Integrating Roof Stormwater Management Solutions

Description

Large scale storm events are becoming increasingly common. Local municipalities are tasked with implementing stormwater management requirements into their codes to help reduce the impact of large precipitation events on their communities. This presentation will explore how to identify projects that may be good candidates for on-structure or rooftop stormwater management, tools that can help meet these challenges and how they can be incorporated into the overburden assemblies we already specify.

Learning Objectives

1. Understand the challenges unique to meeting stormwater management requirements over structure.

2. Identify Stormwater Management “tools” and how they are incorporated into overburden systems.

3. Discuss Design Considerations for On-Structure Stormwater Management
