Rooftop support system

1. A rooftop support system including at least one support block, the support block comprising:

a base configured to rest on the rooftop, the base having a length and a width, and the base having a first base section and a second base section that each define a bottom surface of the support block and are separated in a length direction by an inverted U-shaped recess that is configured as a first gripping feature and extends across the entire width of the base;

first and second sidewalls unitary with the base and extending along the length of the support block, the first and second sidewalls each defining a second gripping feature;

third and fourth sidewalls unitary with the base and extending along the width of the support block, the third and fourth sidewalls each defining a third gripping feature;

an upper surface defining an elongate channel formed therein;

a pair of apertures formed in the elongate channel; and

a coupling feature embedded in each of the apertures,

wherein each of the first base section, second base section, and the inverted U-shaped recess include a cavity formed therein, a depth of each cavity being selected to adjust a mass of the support block, and

wherein the apertures do not communicate with the cavities.

2. The rooftop support system according to claim 1 , wherein the second gripping feature is a triangular-shaped recess formed in each of the first and second sidewalls.

3. The rooftop support system according to claim 1 , wherein the third gripping features are defined by a scallop-shaped recess formed in each of the third and fourth sidewalls.

4. The rooftop support system according to claim 1 , wherein the coupling feature is a threaded surface provided by a T-nut embedded in the apertures.

5. The rooftop support system according to claim 1 , wherein the support block is formed of a water-resistant material.

6. The rooftop support system according to claim 1 , wherein the upper surface includes a pair of braces that extend along a length of the elongate channel.

7. The rooftop support system according to claim 6 , wherein the braces define an arcuate surface that is colored to increase visibility of the support block.

8. The rooftop support system according to claim 7 , wherein the braces define a fourth gripping feature.

9. A rooftop support system including at least one support block, the support block comprising:

a base configured to rest on the rooftop, the base having a first base section and a second base section separated by an inverted U-shaped recess that is configured as a first gripping feature;

first and second sidewalls unitary with the base and extending along a length of the support block, the first and second sidewalls each defining a second gripping feature;

third and fourth sidewalls unitary with the base and extending along a width of the support block;

a pair of scallop-shaped recesses that are formed in the third sidewall and the first base section and the fourth side wall and the second base section, respectively, the scallop-shaped recesses defining a third gripping feature;

an upper surface defining an elongate channel formed therein;

a pair of apertures formed in the elongate channel; and

a coupling feature embedded in each of the apertures,

wherein each of the first base section, second base section, and the inverted U-shaped recess include a cavity formed therein, a depth of each cavity being selected to adjust a mass of the support block, and

wherein the apertures do not communicate with the cavities.

10. The rooftop support system according to claim 9 , wherein the coupling feature is a threaded surface provided by a T-nut embedded in the apertures.

11. The rooftop support system according to claim 9 , wherein the support block is formed of a water-resistant material.

12. A rooftop support system including at least one support block, the support block comprising:

a base configured to rest on the rooftop, the base having a first base section and a second base section separated by an inverted U-shaped recess that is configured as a first gripping feature;

first and second sidewalls unitary with the base and extending along a length of the support block, the first and second sidewalls each defining a second gripping feature;

third and fourth sidewalls unitary with the base and extending along a width of the support block, the third and fourth sidewalls each defining a third gripping feature;

an upper surface defining an elongate channel formed therein, the upper surface including a pair of braces that extend along length of the support block to define the elongate channel; wherein each brace extends laterally outward from of the first and second sidewalls, respectively, to define a fourth gripping feature;

a pair of apertures formed in the elongate channel; and

a coupling feature embedded in each of the apertures.

13. The rooftop support system according to claim 12 , wherein the coupling feature is a threaded surface provided by a T-nut embedded in the apertures.

14. The rooftop support system according to claim 12 wherein each of the first base section, second base section, and the inverted U-shaped recess include a cavity formed therein, a depth of each cavity being selected to adjust a mass of the support block.

15. The rooftop support system according to claim 14 , wherein the apertures do not communicate with the cavities.

16. The rooftop support system according to claim 12 , wherein the support block is formed of a water-resistant material.
