An introduction to living walls, covering both new build and retrofit situations. Starting with an overview of the types of Green Infrastructure and their benefits, we will then look at the different vertical greening options including demystifying hydroponics.
The aim is to provide details on each to enable the potential for living walls to be discussed with clients with confidence and to look towards specifying the solution that will best fit the project.
A detailed look at the specification of green walls as an integrated part of building structures.
Generally focusing on new build but also showing some retrofit examples. This session will explore in detail the integration of living walls into design, including looking at compliance issues such as CWCT testing and reaction to fire as well as demystifying hydroponics.
The aim is to provide a full understanding of, and confidence in, the drawings, specification details and compliance data associated with living cladding systems.
An exploration of how Green Infrastructure can and should be used to help to regenerate our towns and cities.
This session will detail the potential benefits and then explore the potential Green Infrastructure intervention measures including a section on how to safely fix to existing buildings or structures. We will also look at some tools we can use to assess where Green Infrastructure might best be deployed to maximise return on investment.
The aim is to give confidence in understanding what is available to green up our existing towns and cities and how we can go about specifying these features in a way that leads to a joined-up network of green spaces.
