High performance waterproofing systems from Alumasc have been chosen for a major residential complex overlooking Cardiff Bay in Wales
Alumasc's approved contractor W A Roofing of Bristol installed Hydrotech MM6125 Structural Waterproofing and Zinco Green Roof systems to the courtyard areas which were constructed on podium roof structures above a two storey car park.
The Zinco system was also used in the courtyard planters to maintain consistency in supporting the roof's drainage properties.
Hydrotech is suitable for zero falls waterproofing on inverted green roofs and hard landscaped podium structures in new build applications.
It comprises a high performance bituminous rubber blend that allows fast and simple installation, even over complex roof details.
The system enabled the waterproofing and detailing to be sequenced with other work at Victoria Wharf, ensuring the construction programme ran to schedule.
Zinco green roofs from Alumasc offer notable ecological benefits, providing a natural habitat for plants and wildlife, while helping to reduce air and noise pollution, cutting carbon emissions and assisting with rainwater retention and attenuation.
They vary from extensive and biodiverse types which require minimal irrigation and maintenance, to intensive roofs, which are suited for areas of public and recreational use and require more tending.
