Delivers the Ideal Solution
The StormCap™ Detain 3° green roof delivered the perfect solution for Monza Condo Residences by Benvenuto Group to meet detention storage requirements on a challenging site in Toronto. Studio TLA and LEA Consulting upgraded the orinally planned vegetated roof to the highly specialized StormCap™ Detain 3° green roof when permeable pavement and subsurface detention was not feasible and could not meet stormwater management requirements. This green roof is an ideal solution for urban infill development, and areas with a high water table. Detention reduces and dealys peak flow, helps mitigate flash floods and continues to be reliable in back-to-back, second day storms. Unlike blue roofs, StormCap™ Detain 3° friction detention works efficiently on low-sloped roofs. Customizable detention layers can store up to 100 mm (4″) of additional water on your roof. This helps downsize or eliminate the need for underground storage tanks, freeing up valuable space and delivering a strong return on investment.
