Solar frame Construction

DJ:

Brilliant setup!

Strong, relatively cheap and easy to come by components, simple and obviously would work really well.

bj:
   Really impressive.  Shows your usual attention to detail.

After more number crunching, I might just go with several of these.

All the flat metal can quickly be cnc plasma cut, and the panel frame can be cnc drilled.

So not to consume alot of labor.  These can also be easily set in the field with minimal field time and no field welding.

Rossw, your panel around mounts look like they will work decently.    Unfortunately in my case I am reusing an existing foundation, I have 5 concrete caissons already in the ground that were previously used for another purpose.

I definitely don't want to waste them so I am willing to put more effort into a support structure.


As an aside here is the  6- 345 watt panel single pole frame with 130Mph wind analysis.  Panels break first.

eraser3000:
First one done.
