Project report
The 6th floor of the Subaru Headquarters features a rooftop described as “Asia´s first multi-terrain test track, where customers can witness and feel Subaru´s AWD technology in action”. There are three different areas within the roof design, each representing a distinctive landscape, i. e. a tropical rainforest, a rock garden and a desert. Challenging obstacles were built along the circuit, such as humps, rocks, a sand trail and even a waterfall. The all-wheel drive test track was installed on top of the heavy duty drainage element Elastodrain® EL 202, which offers excellent protection to the waterproofing membrane and even caters for wild cornering. Besides, it provides for perfect drainage, most important during heavy tropical rain.
