About this file
This is a technical detail sheet for highway sign sheeting specifications issued by a County in August 2016. The document provides engineering standards for the fabrication and installation of aluminum sign sheeting and bracing systems used in highway signage projects. The specifications detail two primary post support configurations: Type I square posts with both two-post and three-post bracing diagrams, and Type II channel posts. The sheet establishes maximum junction connecting areas of 16 square feet per connecting sign post junction and includes detailed measurements for sign substrate attachment, including rivet specifications, hole spacing, and mounting surface dimensions. The document references compliance with 2004 Standard Highway Signs Blank specifications and indicates that sign sheeting must be color-coded to match by the Project Engineer and/or District Traffic Engineer. All rivets are required to be color-coded to minimize glare, with specific hole diameter and spacing requirements differentiated for signs less than 72 inches in width (3/16-inch diameter holes on 6-inch centers) versus signs 72 inches or greater in width (3/8-inch diameter holes on 1-inch centers). The sheet explicitly notes that alternative sign bracing configurations not shown may be permitted upon approval.
This technical specification sheet contains no information regarding pricing terms, contract funding, set-asides, award timelines, or procurement procedures. It serves solely as an engineering reference document establishing manufacturing and installation standards for highway sign systems.
