PLEASE USE THE GREEN FIELDS FOR YOUR PROJECT SPECIFIC INPUT
Use the following section to easily determine the volume of rooflite soil at a specified final depth (after compaction and settling) for your project by entering the required values. Keep in mind that the green roof area is not always the same as the roof area, which may include ballast strips, HVAC equipment, walkways and other non-vegetated areas. If your roof is not in a geometric shape, you will need to calculate those areas separately. The calculator allows you to add up to 6 products or depths.
SPECIFIED VOLUME (Step 1 of 4)
Select a rooflite product:
IMPORTANT
FOR MULTIPLE ESTIMATES
You can get an estimate for up to 6 products or depths
1. Complete your first product in calculator
2. After completed, you will have option to add more
DISCLAIMER: Please verify all inputs as Skyland USA LLC makes no statement of accuracy. This calculator provides only an estimate of growth media required based on inputs provided by user. Suggested percentage values are typical for green roof media that comply with the FLL Green Roof Guidelines, including but not limited to rooflite. User must verify accuracy of inputs.

STEP 1 EXAMPLES
The following pictures illustrate concepts related to step 1.
Most extensive green roofs have geometric shapes & uniform depth
Undulating green roof designs require extra soil for deeper areas – estimate the right depths
