[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 1096861, member: 175144"] Putting static equipment on a flat roof safely is checking the combination of bearing load, dead weight, plus the local environment in terms of maximium wind, temperature extremes and overall height to work out potential wind shear. This link lets you calculate the recommended minimum weight of ballast for certain dish designs. [URL unfurl="true"]http://www.ballastcalc.com/[/URL] though the figures can be reduced (slightly) if you are using adhesives to stop the dish and mount from sliding about. [/QUOTE]
