The basic module construction follows
NTRAK specifications. Every module is to
have four legs and be free standing to
simplify setup and teardown. Modules can
have a 1" layer of Styrofoam as deck sheet.
Special care must be taken for the module
to remain sufficiently stable. It's a good
idea to have a sheet of luan plywood on the
underside to prevent "punching through"
while handling the module. Remember that
when modules are clamped together that
small
gaps
usually
are
filled
by
"scrunching" sets of modules together.
An
additional
cross
member in the middle of
the module adds a lot of
strength and stiffness,
without adding a lot of
weight.
Make the cross member
slightly smaller than frame
so modules will not harm
each other when stacked
and cut holes for wiring.
