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.
