About this file

This is a Questions and Answers (Q&A) document clarifying specifications for a sign fabrication and installation project.

The document addresses three key inquiries regarding sign post materials, panel construction, and installation methods. For all sign types, posts must be 4"x4" aluminum square tube per the Statement of Work, superseding any conflicting drawing dimensions showing 3-inch posts. Sign Type 2 signs shall be constructed as continuous, double-faced panels using new 1/8-inch thick Aluminum Composite Panels (ACPs) in MP7458 Cast Bronze Color background with high-performance exterior grade paint. Text lettering and arrows shall be applied as white high-performance vinyl graphics to both sides of the new sign faces. The clarification explicitly states that 4.25-inch inserts are not required or intended, confirming single continuous panels per side rather than multiple segmented inserts. This approach eliminates concerns regarding mounting stability and flush installation of center panel portions, as the continuous panel design provides superior structural integrity and finished appearance.

Text version

- The Scope of Work specifies 4-inch aluminum square tube posts for all signs, while the drawings for Sign Types 2 and 3 show 3-inch square posts. Should we follow the Scope of Work or the dimensions shown on the drawings for these sign types?

All posts to be 4”x4” aluminum posts for all signs per SOW.

- For Sign Type 2, should each side of the sign consist of one continuous panel, or are multiple 4.25-inch inserts intended?

Signs to be continuous panels, double-faced with new 1/8” thick ACP’s in MP7458 Cast Bronze Color background in high performance exterior grade paint. Text Lettering and Arrows to be White Color high performance vinyl graphics applied to new sign faces on both sides. Per SOW.

- If the 4.25-inch inserts are required, could you please provide the mounting/installation detail for these panels? The current drawing does not appear to show how the inserts are to be mounted.

- Our proposed slotted frame would only support the ends of multiple panels, which could leave the center portions less secure or not completely flush. Using one continuous panel per side would provide a better finished installation. Would this be acceptable?

4.25 Inserts not required or intended at all. Per SOW, Sign to be double-faced with new 1/8” thick ACP’s in MP7458 Cast Bronze Color background in high performance exterior grade paint. Text Lettering and Arrows to be White Color high performance vinyl graphics applied to new sign faces on both sides. So they will use one continuous panel per side.
