  Please take a look at Power Fields. They have a ballasted ground mount, 
pretty simple to assemble. Two tubs to a panel and the ballast can be dirt, 
gravel or crush and run. 25% angle. Reach out to Cory in sales.

Subject: [RE-wrenches] Ironridge ballasted BX on the ground

 

Greetings Wrenches,

 

Has anyone utilized any ballasted style commercial roof rack solutions directly 
on the ground? I have an upcoming project that is only predicted to be left in 
place for around 5 years and is on land expected to be put back as it was found 
therefore concrete is out of the question. I’ve successfully made temporary 
arrays with standard rails and tilts by pinning 2x wood material to grade but 
this one calls for something lower in profile. Very minimal use is expected 
during winter months so the lower production of a 10 degree tilt is not an 
issue. The Ironridge BX seems like it would be ideal and have been told at 
conferences and distributor shows that it would work but figure one of you may 
have experience with this product or something more appropriate and affordable? 
Perhaps even go for the bonus of something with a 15 degree tilt if it exists? 
I realize weeds and grasses will be a factor as well but client can come up 
with many low tech solutions for that aspect. The grade is quite flat, few 
rocks and site prep can certainly improve even more before the project begins.

 

Thanks for the wisdom and experience, Nick
