A green roof module for covering a portion of a roofing surface with vegetation, includes a tray for containing a growing medium and vegetation, a permeable membrane, and a drainage board The tray has a biodegrad-able bottom and a plurality of upwardly extending biodegradable walls about the perimeter of the biodegrad-able bottom The biodegradable bottom is configured so that water received within the tray can pass therethrough The permeable membrane is provided below the biodegrad-able bottom, and is sized and shaped so as to span the biodegradable bottom and configured to allow water to pass therethrough while inhibiting the growing medium from passing therethrough The drainage board is provided below the permeable membrane opposite the biodegradable bottom, and has an upper surface for supporting the biodegradable bottom and being surrounded by a plurality of edges The drainage board is configured so that at least some of the water passing through the permeable mem-brane and received on the drainage board will be drained away from the tray.

La présente invention concerne un module pour toiture végétalisée permettant de recouvrir de végétation une partie de la surface d'une toiture. Ledit module comprend un plateau destiné à accueillir un milieu de culture et de la végétation, une membrane perméable et un dispositif de drainage. Le plateau comporte un fond biodégradable et une pluralité de parois biodégradables se prolongeant vers le haut tout autour du périmètre du fond biodégradable. Le fond biodégradable est conçu de façon à ce que l'eau arrivant dans le plateau puisse le traverser. La membrane perméable est située sous le fond biodégradable et est d'une forme et d'une dimension telles à recouvrir le fond biodégradable. Ladite membrane est conçue de façon à ce que l'eau, mais pas le milieu de culture, puisse passer à travers. Le dispositif de drainage est situé sous la membrane perméable, à l'opposé du fond biodégradable. Il comporte une surface supérieure entourée d'une pluralité de bords et supportant le fond biodégradable. Le dispositif de drainage est conçu de façon à ce qu'au moins une partie de l'eau traversant la membrane perméable et arrivant au niveau du dispositif de drainage soit évacuée du plateau.
