At ridges or valleys, cut to fit roof ballast pavers or form Green Paks to fit irregular shaped areas.</p><p>OR</p><p>B. Green Paks roof greening system resting on adhered or partially attached roofing systems 1. Install roof ballast pavers to establish a 6 foot wide no-vegetation zone at all vertical surfaces that are constructed of combustible materials, or cover all vertical surfaces constructed of combustible materials with a Class A rated surface treatment extending 6 feet from the vertical surface. Use roof ballast pavers or membrane manufacturer’s walk way material to establish access walk ways as required for egress and maintenance of mechanical equipment. 2. Install Green Paks in straight bond using roof ballast pavers to fill in areas not covered with Green Paks, or coat areas not covered by Green Paks with white roof coating. 3. Fit Green Paks modules tightly together and level growth media within the module to establish a uniform planting surface. 4. Install optional irrigation system. 5. Use a slip sheet between the pavers and the roof membrane at designated areas of foot traffic and at mechanical units. 6.
