Wrenches I'm proposing a PV array on a metal building with L feet attached directly thru the roof into the purlins. The plan is to use thread cutting SS bolts, a minimum of ¼-28 pitch. The metal is 14 ga and will engage over 2 full threads and because the array is only 2 landscape modules on NS rails there will be 2 bolts for every module. 36 total. Im using a mag base drill press so the144 holes will be straight & round. What surprises can I expect or is there an easier way to go about this. Your 2¢ is welcome.
