[2] APPROPRIATE DESIGN APPROACH FOR EASY MAINTENANCE
[3] CAREFUL CONSIDERATION OF HOW THE ROOF WILL BE USED AS A RESEARCH STATION
In order to achieve these goals you will need to determine/ design the following:
- rooftop construction system
- overall layout of roof, access, movement of people
- plant selection framework
- water access, rain water harvesting
- assess and understand soil selection [type of soil medium, weight, density appropriate for site conditions, and growing media]
- working framework for research, data collection
- conceptual ideas for how the roof fits within a larger ecosystem/ watershed
