Abstract:
A cable reinforced matrix to support a solar panel array comprising array bracing beams which define a perimeter including longitudinal array bracing beams and latitudinal array bracing beams with coupling apertures at various points along the latitudinal array bracing beams; cable couplings at opposite points along the latitudinal array bracing beams; cabling traversing the latitudinal array bracing beams; solar panels atop the cabling; longitudinal I-beams; latitudinal I-beams; interpanel I-beam(s); grommets along the cabling; grommet clips; grommet clip fasteners; panel fasteners; columns at either end of the longitudinal array bracing beams; a first cantilever support post extending from the column to the distal portion of the longitudinal array bracing beam; a second cantilever support post extending from the column to the proximal portion of the longitudinal array bracing beam; a footing at the bottom of each column; and dampening/stabilizing element(s) to mitigate vibration and uplift.
