4 FAQs about Photovoltaic support load strength

What are the loads acting on photovoltaic supports?

Based on design information and on-site observations, the loads acting on photovoltaic supports primarily include the weight of the photovoltaic panels, the wind load, the snow load, and the construction load. Additionally, the Chinese code NB/T 10115-2018 mandates the consideration of the longitudinal wind load on photovoltaic supports.

Do photovoltaic supports have a design load and joint connection?

Based on a typical photovoltaic support failure case, this study involved detailed research on the design load and joint connection measures of photovoltaic supports. First, the general design software SAP2000 (V22.0.0) was utilized to compare the loads in photovoltaic support structure design among Chinese, American, and European codes.

What factors affect the load-bearing capacity of photovoltaic support structures?

The support configuration at both ends is one of the key factors affecting the load-bearing capacity of photovoltaic support structures. A brace that is too weak can exacerbate the deformation of the structure, leading to greater damage. It is necessary to avoid out-of-plane deformation by optimizing the joint connection at the end of the brace.

Why are mechanical load values important for photovoltaic modules?

The mechanical load values of photovoltaic modules are crucial for ensuring the durability of installations in all climatic conditions. Taking into account influencing factors such as materials, fastenings, the environment, certifications and ageing makes it possible to select modules that are adapted to the specific needs of each project.
