(SUDS). Detailed design and the correct choice of materials to be applied in this type of roof …

The building sector is facing the challenge of transitioning to a more industrialized
construction approach and is thus promoting the development of new materials that enable …

Green roofs are nature-based solutions with multiple benefits for the urban environment, but
they have specific polymeric components in their structure that cause a carbon footprint. This …

The leaching and control of pollutants in extensive green roofs (EGRs) during rainfall events
is crucial to their improvement and promotion of their application, in which their substrate …

Due to substrate layers with different substrate configurations, extensive green roofs (EGRs)
exhibit different rainfall runoff retention and pollution interception effects. In the rainfall runoff …

Green architecture, including green roofs, can limit the effects of urbanization. Green roofs
soften the thermal effect in urban conditions, especially considering the significant increase …
