1. A system, comprising:
an air conditioning unit; and
a pad including a deck, a sidewall, and a set of ribs, wherein the sidewall and the set of ribs extend from the deck such that the sidewall encloses the set of ribs, wherein the set of ribs includes at least two distributed hub walls where each distributed hub wall has a first set of walls outwardly extending therefrom and a second set of walls inwardly extending therefrom such that the second set of walls intersect each other within that respective distributed hub wall and the second set of walls is shorter in height than the first set of walls relative to the deck, wherein the sidewall defines a corner in proximity of which a post-shaped fillet is positioned, wherein the deck includes a top surface that is planar, wherein the air conditioning unit is positioned on the deck including the top surface, wherein at least one of (a) the set of ribs segments the deck into four quadrants where two of the four quadrants respectively enclose two distributed hub walls of the at least two distributed hub walls; (b) the at least two distributed hub walls avoid sharing a common center with each other; or (c) the deck has a center point and the at least two distributed hub walls are not concentric with the center point.
