In this installation carried out in Guadalajara by FV Solar, a solution with prefabricated concrete supports for solar panels on flat roofs, combined with a ballasted system and SAP50 reinforcement, has been chosen.

The installation has been executed in a horizontal layout with a 15º inclination, an ideal configuration for roofs where the aim is to optimize the available space and improve the stability of the system.

The use of the SAP50 system allows the structure to be reinforced against wind stresses, providing greater rigidity and safety in installations where conditions require it.

Concrete supports for flat roof installations

In this installation, concrete supports specifically designed for flat roofs have been used, allowing the installation of solar panels in a horizontal arrangement without the need for mechanical anchors.

As can be observed in this type of solution, the panels are placed on compact concrete structures that facilitate a correct inclination and distribution on the roof.

This type of support acts simultaneously as structure and ballast, eliminating the need for complex metallic systems.

Among its advantages are the following:

Installation without drilling holes in the roof
Waterproofing protection
Reduced assembly times
High stability against wind loads
Virtually no maintenance

Ballasted system without drilling

The system used in this installation is based on concrete supports that provide their own weight as a fastening element, avoiding perforations in the roof.

This type of solution is particularly suitable for roofs where it is necessary to preserve the waterproofing and guarantee a safe installation.

Concrete supports offer great structural stability thanks to their weight and design, and can be complemented with additional ballast according to the needs of the project.

This system is ideal when:

The cover cannot be drilled
The aim is to avoid leaks or structural damage
Fast and clean installation is required
A demountable solution is needed

Structural reinforcement by SAP50 system

This installation has incorporated the SAP50 system, a reinforcement designed to improve the structural behavior of the installation against wind loads.

This system increases the rigidity of the assembly, avoiding deformations and improving the overall stability of the structure.

Among its advantages are the following:

Reinforcement against horizontal stresses
Improved structural stability
Increased safety in windy conditions
Compatible with ballasted systems

Thanks to the SAP50 system, the installation achieves a higher level of strength and durability.

Optimized deck layout

The horizontal (landscape) configuration allows an efficient distribution of the solar modules, optimizing the available space on the roof.

This type of installation allows:

Maximize the number of panels installed
Maintain correct row spacing
Facilitate access for maintenance
Improve the organization of the system
