If they were deformed with a tightened strap, it seems to me that every other module would be bowed in the opposite direction...this is not the case. Every frame is bowed up to the glass side including the one on the end that was installed glass side in for protection. I will check the glass itself and the centerline of the module. Modules were palleted and shipped vertically as shown in the picture.
