For good water run-off on roofs the slope should be around 2%.SLABSThe most common use for the units is to support concrete and stone paving slabs. Where the longest edge of a slab is greater the 450mm, an additional pedestal is usually required under the middle of each slab.TIMBER DECK BOARDSThe number of pedestals required is determined by the span of the joists used, and can only be calculated once the live load requirements are established. Please call us if you wish to discuss this further. GRILLAGEThe units can also be used as a support for a wide variety of structural elements such as grillage, shown above.

bauder.ie176RAISED PLANTER BEDSThere are many different methods for constructing raised planter beds that are independent of the new waterproofing system. However, they are all similar in that excess water must be free to drain away from the base to the nearest rainwater outlet.The inside of the planter should be waterproofed with a bituminous liquid applied or root resistant membrane to prevent exterior staining to the wall from damp or salts washed out from the construction. This will also help to prevent unwanted moss or algae growth. The method of waterproofing used is dependent upon the nature of the planting and the size of the planter.Wherever possible, we recommend that the waterproofing is applied to the whole roof surface to eliminate the need for complex detailing around structures built off the deck. This will minimise points of penetration through the system. The sectional drawing adjacent illustrates that Bauder DSE60 is ideal for this purpose, because it can be used regardless of whether the landscaping is hard or soft and provide both waterproofing protection and multi-directional drainage over the whole roof area. Its major advantage is that structures such as planter walls, plinths etc. can be built directly off the product as it has the required strength to withstand and spread high imposed weight loads.Planter walls and plinths can also be constructed off our DSE20 board in a similar way where the imposed load is moderate and the drainage needs of the surrounding landscape construction is appropriate.?
