To estimate total rail size, simply multiply the module width (if in portrait, or the module length if in landscape) by the number of modules in a row. In the present case. . ProSolar's RoofTrac® Rail System offers rails in 3 depths: 1-1/2", 2-1/2", and 3". . Rail feet placing is determined by engineering based on wind loads, roof height and other criteria and this determines max spacing but when running rail perpendicular to the rib the final spacing is also determined by the space between the ribs, centre to centre. Includes 1/2” square bend U-bolt sized for specified be and 3/8” column cap assembly hardware. 6m high panel,the rails should be spaced approx. This formula will provide you with total width of rails. *IronRidge stock rails lengths: 12', 14', 16'. .
