Green Roof Construction
Green Roof Research Project
Durban
I was very fortunate to be
included in the team that conducted the green roof pilot project the
first and only research project undertaken in South Africa in which
ground breaking research was undertaken to determine many aspects of
green roof design and construction as well as the suitability of a
range local South African plants to be grown in the green roof
environment under the leadership of the green roof expert Dr Clive
Greenstone and plant specialist and green roof designer and builder
Michael Hickman.
