open in viewerThis project explores the impact of installing a vegetated green roof on the first office building of the new City Square Development in Worcester, Massachusetts. Potential LEED credits were considered in the design of the green roof, a structural analysis of the roof under the additional load was performed, and a cost benefit analysis was conducted.
