2011 Green Roof Symposium

Save the Date – 2011 Green Roof Symposium
The foundation of green roof performance is not settled science, and efforts to mainstream the green roof industry are increasingly requiring proof of performance. This symposium is dedicated exclusively to scientific research in all areas impacting green roof performance and design in the mid-Atlantic region. Topics of special interest include:
* Standardization of methodologies for monitoring green roofs
* Challenges in green roof media design
* Relationship of green roof assembly “build-up” to hydrologic performance
* Long-term evolution and stability of green roof plant communities
This will be a two-day symposium. Day One will focus on scientific research relating to the above topics. Day Two will have moderated workshop sessions focusing on Day One’s presentations, ending with a green roof tour.
When: Friday, August 12 and Saturday, August 13, 2011
Where: Swarthmore College, Swarthmore, PA
