About this file
This document is a technical specification section (Section 02842) for Delineators, likely issued by a transportation or public works department, dated January 1, 2017. The specification outlines detailed requirements for delineators, including Type I and Type II delineators, culvert and maintenance markers, and freeway turnaround markers. The document provides comprehensive technical specifications for steel posts and flexible posts, including precise material requirements, quality control testing parameters, and installation guidelines.
The technical specification includes rigorous testing protocols for flexible posts, such as Cold Bend Test, Hot Bend Test, and Impact Resistance Test, which evaluate the posts' performance under various temperature and impact conditions. The posts must remain flexible between -5 and +140 degrees F, have a tensile strength of 1,100 psi, and withstand multiple impact scenarios from a typical sedan. Additional quality control measures include a 500-hour exposure test to assess resistance to ultraviolet light, ozone, hydrocarbons, and other weathering conditions. The specification references related sections for retroreflective sheeting (Section 02890) and pavement marking paint (Section 02765), and mandates that installed posts must be visibly free of bends or twists.

PART 2 PRODUCTS
2.1 STEEL POSTS
A. Supply and galvanize posts as specified. Refer to ASTM A 1011 and
AASHTO M 111.
B. Use flanged, channel-shaped steel posts that weight 2 lb/ft.
C. Make all cuts before galvanizing posts. Refer to GW Series Standard Drawings.
2.2 FLEXIBLE POSTS
A. Free of burns, discoloration, contamination, and other defects.
B. Remains flexible at temperatures from -5 degrees F to +140 degrees F.
C. Capable of being driven into an earth shoulder with or without a pilot hole.
D. Tensile strength of 1,100 psi. Refer to ASTM D 638.
2.3 QUALITY CONTROL – FLEXIBLE POST TESTING
A. Meet Cold Bend Test
1. Subject two posts to a temperature of -10 degrees F, 5 degrees F for at least four hours.
2. Immediately bend each post four times through a 90 degree angle around a 2 inch mandrel.
3. Each post must return to its original straight configuration within a
10 degree angle within five minutes at the end of the four bends.
4. Any cracking or significant loss of rigidity are grounds for failure.
B. Meet Hot Bend Test
1. Subject two posts to a temperature of 100 degrees F 5 degrees F for at least four hours.
2. Satisfy all bending and physical requirements specified in the Cold
Bend Test.
C. Meet Impact Resistance Test
1. Subject post to impacts by a typical sedan as follows:
a. Three hits - 0 degree angle at 0 degrees F.
b. Three hits - 0 degree angle at 100 degrees F.
c. Ten hits - 0 degree angle at 35 mph.
d. Five hits - 15 degree angle at 55 mph.
