NOVELTY - Support member (10) comprises a base member (11) having two surfaces and two sides. The first surface (14a) defines a recess (12, 28) configured to receive the solar panel. The base member is formed of polymer concrete. The recess is configured so that the solar panel can be positioned within the recess with insubstantial gaps between the sides of the recess and the sides of the solar panel and with the front of the solar panel being flush with the first surface of the base member.    USE - Support member for a solar panel or solar panel array (claimed).    ADVANTAGE - The support member is capable of positioning panel(s) inconspicuously on a roof top. It is light enough not to adversely affect the structural integrity of the roof top and has sufficient mechanical strength and weight to withstand high winds and other ambient conditions, and allows for air to circulate around the solar panel to reduce overheating.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - INDEPENDENT CLAIMS are included for:    (1) solar panel array comprising greater than or equal to 2 solar panels, and greater than or equal to 2 support members, in which each side of base member define flange that is flush with surface of the corresponding base member, and the support members are positioned adjacent to one another so that the first flange (32a) of one of the support members overlaps the second flange (32b) of the adjacent one of the two support members; and    (2) method of forming the support member for the solar panel.    The first surface defines aperture(s) (22, 30) within the recess structured to provide space for air to circulate about the back of the solar panel and to reduce the weight of the base member. The aperture comprises slot(s) (24) or circular opening(s). The first surface of the base member defines raised members (40) within the recess that are structured to engage the solar panel and to provide space between the first surface of the base member and the solar panel. The raised members comprise elongate rib(s).    DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING(S) - The drawing is a perspective view illustrating the solar panel support.
