A rooftop deck or terrace is just a flat roof that you can walk on, using the same principles as a conditioned flat roof to manage bulk water, air leakage, and condensation from uncontrolled vapor diffusion. There's an argument to be made that a rooftop deck or terrace can actually extend the service life of the flat roof membrane below it, as it protects the membrane from heat, ultraviolet light from solar radiation, and water. When we're talking about a rooftop deck or terrace, we're typically referring to a surface finished with a wood deck or pavers made from stone or concrete. Terraces typically have a combination of both wood decking and pavers while rooftop decks are typically finished with wood or composite decking boards.
