mount panels on top of a 40 ft container

You'll be hard pressed to get more than 12 mounted on the roof. 12 in a single portrait oriented row = 39+ feet. Two rows landscape oriented 39+ feet. Unless they are 60 cell panels then you can squeeze 14 panels in two landscape rows.

I have 15 panels, 350 watt each. I own a 40 foot storage container. The long side faces south. Looking to mount the panels on the roof. I will probably do a fixed angle. Should I have someone weld angle iron to the roof and then use angle iron or slotted angle iron to build frame? Anyone done this ? trying to keep it simple.

If you want production in winter, mount them vertically so that snow slides directly off to
the ground. But arrange to be able to easily tilt them back to an efficient summer angle
for the non snow seasons. Bruce Roe
