CS-2009 SSc7.2:Heat Island Effect—Roof

Roof or Non-roof?

Hi All, We are working on a high-rise office project that will sit on top of an existing structure. The existing structure (5-storey retail building) has a larger footprint compared to the proposed building. We included the roof area of the existing building to our project boundary where proposed landscape vegetation will be placed. Should the top most floor (roof level) of the existing structure be considered as roof or non-roof in relation to the proposed high-rise office building?
