The panel assembly also includes a plurality of support arrangements for dividing each first area into a plurality of second areas. Each support arrangement includes a first support member defining a first length such that the first width defined by the first area is greater than the first length. Each support arrangement also includes a second support member defining a second length such that the first height defined by the first area is greater than the second length.
