I've been digesting many elevated track designs over the last couple of years. My current thinking is to use aluminum right angle longitudinals and cross pieces, to which expanded aluminum sheets are bolted. Several angle-iron tracks have been built with expanded steel or concrete reinforcing screening; either assembled by welding or in one case using nylon tie straps. The only downer is weight (plus you better keep them well painted to avoid rust and corrosion. Aluminum will be lighter and not require painting. Downside: materials expense. And I should learn aluminum wire welding for such a project. My modular pieces would be designed to stack in a pickup truck.
Still toying around mentally with several ideas. John P.
