Flat roofs are doing more than ever before. They’re expected to support plant and solar PV, manage rainwater, provide usable external spaces, and meet ever-increasing performance requirements.
As the role of the roof has evolved, so has the challenge of specifying it. The question is no longer whether a roof can meet one requirement, but how the whole system performs together.
This webinar explores what multifunctional roofs demand from specification – and why it's time to think beyond individual performance requirements.
Why attend
If you specify, design, or install flat roof systems, this webinar will help you navigate the challenges shaping modern flat roof specification.
You’ll explore what “extensive loading” really means, challenge common misconceptions around stone wool, and discover why the whole roof system matters.
What you'll learn
- How modern roof demands (plant, solar PV, access, and social use) are challenging traditional flat roof design.
- Why loading, fire, thermal, acoustics, moisture, and durability should be considered together, not individually.
- When typical loading becomes extensive loading.
- An early look at ROCKWOOL's upcoming flat roof solution.
