Very few buildings have the roof designed as a floor..... ie allowing it to be a roof deck..... especially in non residential construction. Besides, vegetation loading are treated entirely different than walking around loads. These are two totally different things. Of course a roof can be designed for a garden roof - but that is the point - it’s usually done up front In The original design, not after the fact. It’s just not an economical thing to do given the strengthening. I only bring this up because it appears to be a MAJOR part of their business plan according to the PR. I am just trying to provide a little info from an engineering perspective on the proposed significant impact on existing buildings and how it could relate to their plans. I don’t mean to be a downer on it, just trying to be realistic and walk with eyes open about there future plans. PR’s are great, but then there is real life application and it happens Be a subject I deal with everyday.

Generally- just adding 4psf solar panels to a roof is about all that most roofs can take without strengthening, much less greenhouse, plants , water platforms anchorages for wind etc.

At any rate - you get the point , sorry for belaboring it

Wishing us all good luck
