Post Driving for Large Scale Ground Mount Solar PV Installations
RBI Solar offers various foundation options for the solar mounting systems including concrete piers, driven post, screw anchors and helical piles. All these options can work well; the developers and project engineers on the project must select the foundation that most efficiently works on the project in terms of design, engineering and economics. This is where experience in all types of foundation options becomes a key component in the overall design of the solar mounting system. Here are the benefits of using driven post as foundation for ground mount solar project.
Engineered solution for solar mounting systems:
Driven posts are a complete engineering solution. The quality is consistent from the first pile to the last and is tested prior to installation. Shape is maintained during installation. They do not bulge in soft soil conditions and are typically not susceptible to damage from the installation of subsequent piles. The pile driving process for solar mounting systems can be easily modeled prior to ground mount solar installation to determine adequate and economic equipment selection.
Economical solution for PV mounting systems:
Driven posts are usually the most cost effective foundation solution for ground mount solar. Pile capacity is easily verified by either static or dynamic pile testing. As an additional benefit, driven piles often gain capacity after installation.
Flexibility to mount solar structures:
Driven piles are installed to accommodate compression, tension or lateral loads. Piles can be selected to meet the specific needs of the solar structures, site conditions and budget.
Trustworthy and Available: Pile driving equipment and installation methods are time-tested and well proven. Advances in materials, equipment, methods, and testing continually combine to improve the efficiency of driven post at solar panel installation.
Miscellaneous benefits of post driving for solar Racking systems:
Pile driving is relatively easy in many soils. Since the soil at the toe is in a compacted condition for displacement piles, end bearing can often carry a substantial load. Driven piles require no curing time and can be driven in natural sequence rather than skipping alternate piles, thus minimizing the moving of the equipment and speeding installation.
Environmentally Friendly:
Driven pile installations usually produce no spoils for removal and therefore no exposure to, or costly disposal of, potentially hazardous or contaminated materials. The site is left clean and ready for the next construction activity.

RBI Solar Case Study
COUNTRY MEADOWS
Project Location:
Bethlehem, PA
Project Summary:
Type of Installation: Ground Mount Solar Size: 293 kW Module Type: Hyundai HiS-M227SG (227 Wp) Module Quantity: 1288 Foundation Type: Concrete Pier
Challenge:
The designers had to fit the 293 kW array of Hyundai 60-cell, PV modules within the available area. Local conditions required ground mount solar to meet 30 PSF ground snow load and 90 MPH wind load conditions.
Solutions:
RBI solar, Inc. designed the tilt-angle of the ground mount solar framing system for the array at 30 degrees. The RBI Solar team designed the solar mounting system to keep the elevation at the top of the modules approximately 8 feet from rough grade, accounting for terrain undulations.
Project Overview:
Country Meadows of Bethlehem completed a solar installation to supply approximately 23 percent of the retirement community's energy needs. Annually this PV mounting system will save over 1.6 million pounds of carbon dioxide, the most abundant greenhouse gas. This is equivalent to removing over 140 cars from road.
RBI Solar, Inc. has provided solar racking systems for this project. This 293 kW solar farm will harvest about 348 MWh annually, or enough energy to offset the energy needs of about 32 homes.
RBI Solar used solar racking systems designed with frames consisting of posts and rafters. The frames supported two rows of modules installed in portrait orientation. Within a structural frame, each row of modules contained five solar modules. Structural steel purlins support the solar modules with top-clamps holding the modules in place.
RBI Solar Inc. provided the complete design, engineering, manufacturing, and shipping, of all the racking materials. Racking for this project was manufactured in RBI Solar's Ohio manufacturing facility. On site, solar installation crews installed the foundations, structural frames, and the mounting system.
