Mechanical equipment supports distribute unit loads into beams, joists, roof curbs, or housekeeping pads. Point loading is checked before the frame is built.
Supports are sized so filters, drain pans, belts, and access panels remain reachable. Supporting the unit is not enough if maintenance cannot happen.
Motors, fans, pumps, and compressors can vibrate through a light support frame. Bracing, base plates, and isolator space are considered in the layout.
Rooftop supports need height and footprint that respect membrane, insulation, flashing, and drainage. Steel should not trap water against the roof.
