About this file

This is a Design Intent document prepared by Sky Design Graphics for Henry County's Developer Signage project (Project #31769.00), dated August 7, 2025. The document provides comprehensive design specifications and fabrication guidelines for developer signage that will be installed at various locations throughout Henry County, Georgia. The project involves the creation of two-sided developer signs featuring aluminum construction with painted finishes, decorative finials, and graphic panels. The signage design includes 12-foot-tall posts with 4-foot by 8-foot sign panels, mounted on concrete footings with breakaway connections at the base. All fabrication and installation must comply with local ordinances, ADA requirements, and current Georgia/Henry County building codes for wind load and thermal deformation. The design documents explicitly state they are for intent purposes only, with no confirmed dimensions, requiring field survey verification by the sign fabricator prior to final shop drawing production.

The fabricator bears full responsibility for site verification, engineering analysis, field measurements, structural integrity assessment, and permit acquisition. All materials must meet specified standards, including 0.125-inch aluminum stock for cabinets, seamless construction with no visible fasteners unless intentional, and paint finishes with a minimum five-year warranty. Hardware specifications include Brandon Industries finials and bases with tamper-resistant securing mechanisms. The contractor must submit detailed shop drawings, color and material samples, and mockups for owner approval before manufacturing begins. Installation requirements include Georgia-stamped engineered footings, protection of signage until project completion, and vendor responsibility for all equipment and potential damage to building structures. A one-year warranty from substantial completion covers faulty materials and workmanship, including fading, cracking, oil canning, peeling, delaminating, rusting, and structural failure.

The following design documents are for the sole purpose of conveying design intent and are not intended for construction purposes. The fabricator may make recommendations and/or changes to the details as shown in the drawings with written approval of the Owner’s representa-tive. The fabricator assumes all responsibility for signage integrity, engineering, field verification and measurements, etc. as part of the bid submittal process.

Sky Design and the Owner shall review all shop drawings for conformance with the design intent of these drawings only and will not be held responsible or liable for any results of construction from working drawings, materials selection, shop drawings, or any other agreements.

R E V I E W

• Site: The fabricator is responsible for verifying all site conditions with regards to fabrication and installation before manufacture of signage. Any conditions that would impede the proper and timely completion of the work should be presented to the Owner’s representative in writing.

• Sign Location Plans: Locations shown on the Sign Location Plans are for general placement. The fabricator shall confirm each sign location with the Owner’s representative and locate via stake and flag for verification.

• Fabricator shall notify the Owner’s representative of any discrepancies in the design documents or graphics schedule as well as discrepancies in field dimensions or field conditions (drainage pipes, etc.) that would require changes in sign construction details. All discrepancies shall be brought to the attention of the Owner’s representative prior to production.

• Any conflicting conditions with signage that are not coordinated prior to the manufacturing of the scope of work will need to be addressed in the punchlist phase and will be the responsibility of the vendor.

E N G I N E E R I N G

• Footings: All footings to be verified by structural engineer as part of scope. Drawings show footings for intent only. An Engineer’s Stamp is to be obtained when necessary to comply with permits and/or codes.

• Wind load: Exterior signs shall be designed to withstand wind pressure loading to meet or exceed all current code requirements for the state of Georgia/Henry County. Internal framework should also provide maximum capacity to avoid any surface oil canning, curvature, or deviations.

• Thermal Deformations: Design, fabricate, and install component parts to provide for expansion and contraction over a temperature range for the material of 150 degrees Fahrenheit (83.3 degrees Celsius), without buckling, oil canning, sealant joint failure, glass breakage, undue stesss on members or anchors, and other detrimental effects.

A R T W O R K

All enlarging and reducing of supplied artwork images is the responsibility of the signage fabricator. Any discrepancies after enlarging or reducing

vs. original artwork are to be addressed with Owner’s representative prior to reproduction. Refer to the design documents for reference as to what artwork will be provided. Sky Design will not submit electronic artwork for contractors use in shop drawings except for custom created logos, icons, typography, etc. Artwork for general fabrication items will not be submitted so please account for this in your time frames and general costs.

S U B M I T T A L S

Color samples, material samples, submittals, copy layouts, and working drawings are to be provided for approval by the Owner’s representative and Owner prior to manufacture. Full size copy layouts will also be required as needed.

• Shop Drawings are the responsibility of the fabricator for each of the disciplines contained within and are to include all necessary dimensions drawn to scale, details, internal mechanicals, joint connections, hidden connections, anchorage to footings, section views as needed, etc. These must be submitted as one comprehensive package to be reviewed and approved prior to beginning any construction. Scans or copies of the enclosed design documents with contractor title block will not be accepted for approval as working drawings. The sign fabricator is responsible for all aspects of fabrication including engineering, installation techniques and performance, as well as coordination with site contractors and related trades.

• Paint: 3 samples of each color to be submitted on minimum 4” x 4” plate. One will be returned; the others will be retained for file references. All paints used must retain a minimum 5-year warranty for interior and exterior signage. This includes no cracking, flaking, or fading. Exterior paints should be 2-part catalyst hardened urethane, base coat, top coat, satin finish unless otherwise specified.

• Inkjet and/or Printed Wallcovering: 1 proof of each type of inkjet graphic to be submitted at full-size. For large format graphics, a minimum 12” x 12”, full size portion should be submitted, along with a smaller-scaled full layout of each design/image. Proofs are to be of equal or greater reproduction quality than the original artwork provided. All inkjet graphics are to be printed on 3M material or equivalent using pigment-based ink to prevent fading and discoloration. If necessary, laminates on printed vinyl are to be 3M material or equivalent. All inkjet graphics to be matte laminated, unless otherwise specified. Warranty information for all inkjet applications to be provided at no less than five years. If a matte laminate is specified for use over printed wallcovering, then a liquid laminate must be used.
