Introduction: Construction Project Signs EP 310-1-6a 01 Jun 06

16-1

The use of signs to identify Corps managed or supervised design, construc-tion, and rehabilitation projects - both for military and civil works - is an important part of efforts to keep the public informed of Corps work. For this purpose, a construction project sign package has been adopted. This package consists of two signs: one for project identification and the other to show on-the-job safety performance of the contractor.

These two signs are to be displayed side by side and mounted for reading by passing viewers. Exact placement location will be designated by the contracting officer’s representative.

The panel sizes and graphic formats have been standardized for visual consistency throughout all Corps operations.

Panels are fabricated using HDO plywood or aluminum with dimensional lumber uprights and bracing. The sign faces are nonreflective vinyl.

All legends are to be die-cut or computer-cut in the sizes and typefaces specified and applied to the white panel back-ground following the graphic formats shown on pages 16-2 and 16-3. The Communication Red panel on the left side of the construction project sign with Corps Signature (reverse version) is screen-printed onto the white back-ground.

A display of these two signs is shown on the following two pages. Mounting and fabrication details are provided on page 16-4.

Special applications or situations not covered in these guidelines should be referred to the district Sign Program Manager.

Signature Color Use Guidelines EP 310-1-6a

4-3

The illustrations below show the various color configurations possible when using the Corps Signature on signs. Note that there are fewer possible ways to render the Signature on a sign panel than are specified for print applications (see Graphic Standards Manual, pages 1-5).

a) The most prominent use of the Signature will be on identification signs. For Standard Identification, post and panel signs, the reverse Signature is used; the Mark is Communication Red, the Signature type is white.

b) For large-scale Standard Identification signs of individual fabricated letters, the positive version is used; the Mark is Commu-nication Red and the Signature typography is white (see page 5-7).

c) The Corps Participation Credit sign uses an all white reverse Signature on a Corps Brown background.

d) The header panels on Building Office Directories use a reverse Signature in white on Dark Grey.

e) Construction Project Identification signs use an all white reverse Signature on a Communication Red background.

f) Boundary signs use the positive Signature in black on a white background.

Color StandardsEP 310-1-6a

4-4

Within the Corps sign system there are five standard color palettes. Three have been developed by the Corps and include: 1) Recreation Area signs,

2) Lock, Dam and Waterway signs, and

3) Office Interior signs. Two color groups have been adopted from existing standards: 1) Traffic signs (MUTCD) and

2) Workplace Safety signs (ANSI). Each of these is illustrated on the following pages with descriptions for their use.

The two-character color code is in parentheses immediately after the color.

Additional color application instructions are included in each respective section.

Colors must conform to the standards presented on the following pages when preparing signs.

For many of the colors shown on the next five pages, a corresponding Federal Standard Color number is listed. These numbers refer to color samples con-tained in a fan deck titled Federal Standard 595B Colors. The fan deck is published by the General Services Administration, order number 7690-01- 162-2210.
