Experimental characterisations of green roof substrate physical properties
dataset
posted on 2021-04-09, 13:52 authored by Zhangjie PengZhangjie Peng, Virginia StovinVirginia Stovin, Joerg WerdinJoerg WerdinThe dataset describes the Soil Water Release Curve (SWRC) and Hydraulic Conductivity Function (HCF) of four representative green roof substrates. The runoff and moisture content data collected during the detention tests with the substrates is also included in this dataset.
This dataset provides the data used in the journal paper:
