Artificial rains which mimicked individual rain events were applied over the test rig bymeans of a sprinkler; then runoff volumes were measured at one minute intervals usingmeasuring cylinders. The runoff from the green roof and the perspex panel was compared.Figure 39: Green Roof Test Rig for Rainfall Runoff with Artificial Rain EventFigure 39 and 40 show the green roof test rig with the perspex sheetNiall Carroll Page 62The Thermal and Rainwater Runoff Performance of an Extensive Green Roof System
