The concept of using concrete pavers as roof ballast, plaza deck and terrace pavers has created new opportunities for otherwise lost space. Roofs and Decks can now be functional, as well as attractive when viewed from higher elevations. Hanover® Prest® Pavers provide durability, protection and performance for the roof system from harsh weather conditions.

The popularity of energey-efficient roofs, or Green Roofs, is increasing as its value is appreciated. Hanover® is developing a series of pavers that provide reflectance and emissive values providing great performance to the Green Roof concept.

Hanover® offers a solution for all roofing/waterproofing needs — from Standard Walkway and Roof Ballast, to Architectural Plazas and Green Roofs. A textured Tudor® finish gives slip resistant properties and by elevating the pavers, water is channeled away from the surface. Safer than gravel ballast, Hanover® pavers make roofs and plazas safe for pedestrians and simplify repairs. Roof ballast, functional design, color and durability all come together with Hanover® roof and deck pavers.

Hanover® Roofs and Plaza Pavers allow easy access to the roof and waterproofing system for making repairs or standard maintenance procedures. Hanover® offers several pedestal/shims, leveling, and elevated systems for all of your plaza deck needs. Whether your project is a roof, deck, plaza or terrace, Hanover® roof pavers are serviceable, functional and attractive.

Hanover® roof pavers are available as a Single Source component from several waterproofing manufacturers.

Green Roofs
The popularity of energy-efficient roofs, or Green Roofs, is increasing as its value is appreciated. The intention of the Green Roof concept is to take otherwise heat producing areas, such as rooftops and plazas, and provide a cooler environment. The result is a cooler roof decreasing the buildingís energy consumption and reducing the ìheat islandî effect. The Green Roof concept has seen wide spread acceptance within the construction community.

Hanover® Prest® Pavers work hand in hand with Green Roof assemblies to provide environmental benefits and aesthetically appealing rooftop or plaza gardens. From planted areas which incorporate topsoil and mulch to grassy areas over a layer of soil or lightweight gravel fill, Hanover® Pavers can become an integral part of these lush landscape designed roofs. Pavers can be used to create walkways, terraces or seating areas while providing positive drainage.

Hanover® is developing a series of pavers that provide reflectance and emissive values providing great performance to the Green Roof concept. Hanover's Glacier White has a reflectance value of 0.655 and emissivity value of 0.90. These values are a critical element in the roofís ability to reduce heat consumption into the structure below. Although the 0.655 and 0.90 are target values, Hanover® manufactures a variety of pavers that provide both reflective and emissivity values. Some are less than the target value, but still provide a reflective or emissive value. Hanover® Architectural Products is in the process of developing additional colors that will satisfy the 0.655 and 0.90 requirement. In all cases, Hanover® Prest® Pavers can be an integral part of achieving the LEEDS point requirements for Green Roof designs.
