Abstract
A building product may include a top layer that is substantially rigid such that it is configured to be walkable. In addition, the building product may include a radiant barrier layer configured to reflect heat, and a vent layer located between the top layer and a roof deck. The vent layer may comprise air flow channels configured to transfer heat through at least a portion of the roof product. The top layer, vent layer and radiant barrier layer can form a unitary structure.
