About this detail

This wall section details a roof planter assembly set adjacent to an exterior wall with metal stud framing and exterior gypsum sheathing. The planter incorporates a pre-finished metal cap, minimum three-inch and six-inch dimensional clearances, a planter drain connected to storm drain piping, and a geocomposite drainage board. Below the planting bed, a concrete topping slab slopes toward the drain at a minimum of one-quarter inch per foot over a concrete over metal deck floor system. An expansion joint separates the planter assembly from the adjacent exterior wall construction. The supporting structure utilizes structural steel beams carrying the concrete and metal deck, with radio frequency shielding installed as indicated.
