System Summary
Carlisle Extensive Roof Garden System, also known as a "shallow" green roof, is a built-in-place system with a media depth ranging from 7 cm (2.75 in) to 12.7 cm (5 in). Extensive green roofs are the most commonly specified type due to their lightweight design and cost-effectiveness, making them ideal for retrofit applications. The shallower growing media depth is well-suited for low-growing, drought-tolerant vegetation like sedum, which requires minimal maintenance compared to other green roof types.

Conditions and Limitations
Note that system thickness is dependent upon the selection of components, which is determined (in part) by design parameters, including hydrological requirements. Consult with the vegetated roof system manufacturer for options and saturated system weight.
Also note that vegetation coverage under the RoofStar Vegetated Roof Guarantee applies only to extensive systems planted with mats or trays - see Part 3 of Division A for more about coverage.
