Green roofs are of increasing interest as one of the solutions to counteract a number of environmental and socio-economic problems associated with the growth of urban areas. It is necessary to transform the built-up environment by including it in civil engineering, using the existing roof areas of buildings. Eexploitable green roofs need to be integrated into an urbanized urban landscape.

The priority of modern construction is the consolidation of existing urban development, with existing infrastructure, communications, developed transport network, proximity to the historical center of the city, providing the population with comfortable accommodation and amenities. Construction has a number of features associated with the cramped conditions of the construction site, the development of underground space, which requires fundamentally new organizational and technological approaches in construction, justification and development of the most effective and economical methods for the construction of buildings and structures in dense urban development.

Concrete has unique properties that allow it to occupy a leading position in the market of building materials. General-purpose structural concrete is used for the construction of buildings and structures that can provide sufficient strength and elasticity for load-bearing and enclosing structures. Concrete production technologies are in constant development, inextricably linked with the solution of the most important task – reducing the mass of building materials, and, as a result, reducing the material consumption of construction
