Original Abstract

Hydrophilic mineral wool panels can be used in extensive vegetation green roof systems as a soil replacement. They are lightweight (also with full water saturation) and have certified thermal insulation properties in wet conditions. Low weight of panels is further more advantageous in the intensive green roof systems , with vegetation layer above 40 cm, static demands on roof and wall constructions can be dramatically decreased. Multiple-layered panels can help with thermal properties of building envelope of passive houses more than standard soil.
