Ponding water can seriously increase the load on a roof assembly. As water
accumulates, deck deflections (sags) can increase, resulting in more ponding
water which could compromise the structural integrity of the deck. Flat roofs and
low slope roofs also face potentially serious condensation problems that can in
turn lead to costly rot or mold damage in buildings. The problem comes when
fallen trees from the near trees collected and block the water channel trough the
drainage.
This will give a potential problem such as surface water flooding or water
ponding on the rooftop of the building. Ponding water is defined as the water
which remains on a roof 48 hours or more. Most flat roofs require some sort of
pitch or slope to avoid ponding water. But unfortunately, ponding water occurs
on most flat roofs.
The others potential issues that is may contributed due to the water ponding on
the surface of the roof is the potential growth of plant on the rooftop drainage.
This will abuse the structure of the rooftop and the molds.

4. Regularly maintenance
The maintenances of the rooftop drainage should be done regularly. The
leaves and unwanted object should not be blocked the drainage channel.
The circled area is one of evidence that the tree planted near the drainage
system. This could possibly subject to abuse from construction and maintenance.
A proper management of planted tree for screening the building need to be
considered in this area.
