Motus Consult provided structural engineering services for a green roof on West Pender Street in Vancouver, BC. Green roofs are a great way to bring life to buildings and suburbs, but they require extensive expertise in wind uplift pressures to prevent them from blowing or sliding off in windy conditions.

Working closely with the team at ZinCo Canada, the Motus Consult team conducted in-depth analysis of the roof and developed strategies to mitigate wind effects, ensuring the green roof would last for many years. This project is an excellent example of how green roofs can be a great way to enhance a space, while also highlighting the need for careful planning and expertise to ensure their longevity.
