Southface Green Roof

For the past year and a half, Roger Grant, a Columbia Engineering Registered Landscape Architect, volunteered his time and labor to Southface Energy Institute on the design and installation of an irrigation system for both the site and greenroof. Using existing infrastructure, including a 14,500 gallon underground cistern, he coordinated with irrigation contractors and Southface to develop a plan that showcases advanced technologies in irrigation design. In addition to designing the system, Roger led a team of University of Georgia volunteers in the installation and developed a two day workshop for future use.
