For the deteriorating urban ecological environment, the green roofs, as an important component of the urban landscape, play a positive and important role on constructing harmonious and natural urban environment. This article is focused on the analyses of the technical characteristics of green roof system and its structure, and also on the demonstration of the important effects of green roofs in areas such as energy-saving, emission reduction and eco-environment.

Runoff Quality

Green roofs possess the potential to provide a plethora of benefits in the urban environment. The variability among the green roof typologies (intensive, extensive, and agriculture) leads to different benefits when one system is selected over another. By the collection and analyzing of metadata, an evaluation tool is developed to assist green roof designers to meet the goals of their specific project. Included criteria for evaluation are: water runoff quantity, water runoff quality, maintenance, amenity, and irrigation. The evaluation tool is designed to be compartmentalized, with each criteria treated independently, allowing further expansion, alteration, or refinement of the tool in the future.
