Assemble & Learn Green Roof Model

Designed as an accurate representation of a mini functioning green roof, Skol Manufacturing Company’s Assemble & Learn Green Roof Model offers the opportunity to teach green roof construction first hand at very low cost. Our model also provides an excellent way to demonstrate the functionality and benefits of green roof technology to your clients who are considering a green roof.

For classroom teaching, the Assemble and Learn Model comes with lesson plans and an activity guide at the middle school and high school levels. We designed our model to be assembled by students within one 45 minute period.

The Assemble & Learn Model includes an aluminum rooftop, roof membrane, filter fabric, perimeter edging, drainage aggregate (gravel) and growth media. A plexiglas viewing window allows access to inner workings of the green roof. In the center is a roof drain and built -up drain box assembly. Secondary drain is provided at perimeter wall in non-vegetated area with scupper fence to prevent clogging by media and debris. Water drains to a concealed trough and out a spigot into a graduated container receptacle for measuring purposes. The units also come with a thermometer and probe to measure and compare membrane temperature.
