In this paper, the analysis of two different design approaches of solar panel support structures is presented. The analysis can be split in the following steps.
DER produce and supply electricity on a small scale and are spread out over a wide area. Rooftop solar panels, backup batteries, and emergency diesel generators are examples of DER.
6 of the Detailed Structural Commentary explains why 48” is the standard distance between attachment points for most locations in the United States. This allows for snow loads up to 60 psf and wind loads as high as 150 mph.
