The apparatus is substantially wedge-shaped with a base (102) for contacting a roof surface (203) and an inclined front face (103) for supporting the device (601). The apparatus is configured such that the total weight is adjustable so as to apply an appropriate loading on the roof. In a first embodiment ballast is supplied to a ballast cavity (105). In an alternative embodiment, wedge-shaped members (903) may be selectively removed from an assembly so as to provide a desired weight distribution.
