Green Roof Terracing
The terracing of the green roof above the sporting facilities wouuld increase the connection between the site and the rooftop areas. It would also be efficient in creating another access point for the ten pin bowling centre located on level 3. By situating the terraced seciton on the western side of the building will provide protection from harsh western sun. It has also identified that the majority of site users will approach the building from the city end rather than from the other endd of the site, therefore will be effective in providing options depending on which part of the building they want to access. Show below is the terracing as seen from the Southern elevation and the path which is possible up to the roof area. These terraced platforms will also provide numerous views into the sporting area providing interaction between movement zones.
