PART 2 PRODUCTS

2.1 MATERIALS

2.1.1 Wood

Wood material for the posts shall be preservative treated, structural grade Douglas Fir or No. 1 Southern Pine, or better. All other wood members shall be of well seasoned, kiln dried, clear redwood, bald cypress, red cedar, Douglas fir, spruce, tulip poplar, or white pine. The lumber materials shall be free of splits, wane, and loose knots or pitch pockets. All members of the sign shall be fastened with screws or bolts of type, size, number, and spacing to provide rigid construction and neat appearance. If the vertical supports system does not rigidly support the sign due to local soil conditions and/or wind loading additional bracing of the sign supports shall be provided. This additional bracing shall be composed of 2" x 4" bracing bolted to the inside face of each 4" x 4" support post and firmly anchored to the ground behind the sign. This additional bracing is not required to be treated lumber. Two-inch x four-inch struts shall be installed between the 4" x 4" support posts to reinforce the top and bottom edges of the sign panels.

2.1.2 Sign Face

The sign faces shall be electronically printed on white non-reflective vinyl decals four mils thick. The sign face decals shall be mounted on panels of 3/4" thick high density overlay exterior plywood with single-sided vinyl facing. The entire circumference of the sign panels will be sealed and protected with white vinyl trim cap. A protective overlaminate film shall be applied over the sign face decals capable of minimizing the deteriorating effects of ultraviolet radiation and providing additional protection against weathering and application of graffiti. The BIL symbol is shown on the attached BIL Emblem Guide.

2.1.3 Fasteners

All bolts shall be 0.375" diameter and 4" long Allen head bolts, threaded to match T-nuts.

Installation and positioning of the sign plate and posts shall be as indicated on EP 310-1-6a , Part 16, attached. Excavation and backfilling of the holes for posts and installation of the posts, braces, and stakes shall be such that signs are installed plumb and level.
