DMEGC

Ground frame for 10 DMEGC Infinity RT DM440M10RT-54HBB panels (1×10)

1 row of 10 panels, 4.40 kW. The Solispec engine chose the profiles, the frame pitch and the footings for three snow and wind zones: Kherson has the lowest load of the regional centres, Cherkasy the median, Chernihiv the highest.

Ground frame designer

Open this frame in the builder

The builder opens with the DMEGC Infinity RT DM440M10RT-54HBB panel and the 1 × 10 layout; site — Cherkasy. Change the site, the tilt or the profiles and the checks and estimate are recalculated.

Three snow and wind zones

The same table designed for three regional centres: with the lowest, the median and the highest combined snow and wind load under DBN V.1.2-2:2006. For another site, open the frame in the builder.

Checks and cautions

Member utilisation as the engine computes it. Cautions are checks that pass, but with a small margin.

  • Max. frame pitch, mmThe purlins between the frames are used above 80 % (strength or deflection): the structure passes, but the margin is small. A shorter frame pitch or a deeper purlin gives more margin.Kherson: Frame spacing 2 710 mm, 5 frames. Purlin C-channel 60×40×2: strength 84%, deflection 90% of L/200 (snow on panel 489 Pa).Chernihiv: Frame spacing 2 200 mm, 6 frames. Purlin C-channel 60×40×2: strength 83%, deflection 72% of L/200 (snow on panel 1 106 Pa).

Yield

Yield: 1,139 kWh per 1 kW a year, ≈ 5,011 kWh a year in total (median zone, Cherkasy; tilt 30°, the optimum for the latitude is 35.3°).

A preliminary calculation; a design needs an engineer's check. Snow and wind per DBN V.1.2-2:2006 for the regional centre; profiles, footings and estimate by the Solispec engine 0.12.0.
