To investigate the mechanical performance and failure characteristics of photovoltaic support bracket and connections with the cold-formed thin-walled high strength steel, 55 specimens
View Details
The forces acting on the bracket and the panels are measured using force sensors, and the deformation of the bracket is monitored. This test helps to evaluate the bracket''s ability to withstand wind loads
