Garden at Podium / terrace area is fully or partially covered with soil planted out with vegetation that has been applied over a composite drainage on the waterproofing system. A podium / terrace garden provides environmental benefits like:

1. Terrace garden reduces external noise to the building interior and increases thermal insulation to the building interior.
2. Reduces consumption of electrical / gas / coal related energy requirements for the building.
3. Reduces storm water runoff from roof catchment areas of the building.
4. Helps to purify the immediate atmosphere by converting carbon dioxide to oxygen adjacent to the building.
5. Creates an aesthetic outlook and / or recreation space to a roof area of a building.

Roof waterproofing is constantly exposed to weathering elements – sun, wind, rain, etc., for the most part, water buildup will be made to drain off from the roof by providing proper slope. Their remedial construction, whether it is removal or replacement, can be accomplished utilising routine construction methods with (in most cases) minor inconveniences in the building due to ease of accessibility to the roof.

Podium / Terrace garden waterproofing products are not exposed to weathering elements. However, they are exposed to constant water buildup and soil chemicals. Properly applied waterproofing systems can have a service life that matches the life of the building. This is an important characteristic, because unlike roofing materials, the waterproofing materials are inaccessible and the expenses associated with repairs and replacement are substantial primarily due to excavation costs.

The Roof Garden
Rooftop garden construction consists of four important components:

1. Waterproofing membrane.
2. Protection board.
3. Drainage Medium
4. Filter Fabric
