1. A server rack assembly, the assembly comprising:
a server rack defining at least a lower volume, an upper volume, and a middle volume positioned vertically between and adjacent to each of the upper volume and the lower volume;
an upper server received in the upper volume;
a lower server received in the lower volume; and
a middle server received in the middle volume, the middle server comprising:
a chassis base having a support sheet, the support sheet pre-formed with a predetermined amount of upward pre-bend or pre-bow, the support sheet having a plurality of openings;
computing components supported by the support sheet so that the support sheet is subject to a weight load from the computing components;
a mechanical cable weaved through the plurality of openings and anchored at a first end; and
a tensioner coupled with a second end of the mechanical cable and operable to adjust tension in the mechanical cable so that the mechanical cable applies a force to the support sheet to supplement the weight load from the computing components and counteract the upward pre-bend or pre-bow by an amount configured to prevent the computing components from protruding into the upper volume and to prevent the chassis base from sagging into the lower volume.
