Abstract
An assembly for shipping and supporting a module for a heat recovery steam generator comprises a base having four vertical truss members slidably mounted to the base at one end. Each vertical truss member is positioned a distance apart from another vertical truss member across the base such that four paths of adjacent vertical truss members define a front, a back and two sides. The assembly further comprises at least one level. Each level comprises a horizontal member rotatably attached to the vertical truss members at the front and the back of the assembly. A junction is fixed to each vertical truss member at both sides of the assembly; a side truss member is rotatably attached to the junctions at both sides. An internal grid is attached to the horizontal truss members between the vertical truss members. Diagonal truss members are removably attached to the junctions at both sides of the assembly between adjacent levels such that the diagonal truss members diagonally extend from the junction of one level to the junction of an adjacent level.
