System Summary
This green roof system builds on a plant palette dominated by sedum species, but includes various drought tolerant, upright perennials. Increased water retention and soil depth provide for a wider range of plant choices and a more dynamic visual effect. ZinCo's Sedum Roof XL system features:
  • Lightweight
  • Minimal maintenance
  • 100-120 mm of growing medium required, and
  • More diverse plant palette
(adapted from the manufacturer's literature)

Conventionally Insulated Roof Assembly by roofing Contractor
†Guarantor's Notes
Systems labeled "Inverted" are designed for a protected membrane roof assembly, also known as an inverted roof assembly.
While Semi-intensive and Intensive vegetated roof systems are limited to only protected membrane roofs (See the Sentence 1.1.3.2.(5) in the "RGC Standard for Vegetated Roofs"), some vegetated roof system manufacturers offer their systems for conventionally insulated roofs. To request a written Variance to the published limitation, follow the requirements in Article 1.1.3.6..
*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.
