Battery strings [RE-wrenches]

[Bob Ellison]

I am putting together a pack of 12 L-16's @ 24 volts and am wondering if
there is a definite opinion on what works better, connecting at the corners
of the pack or running each string to it's own buss bar and from there to
the inverter. 
I have seen failures of the major positive and negative when corner
connected.  I assume from the all the banks current running through the
connections. I have also heard suggestions to rearrange the battery bank
during it's life. (too much like work) 
Has anyone had better luck with each string going to a bus bar then to the
inverter? Similar to the "big buss" that Outback used to make?
 
Thanks,
Bob
