Abstract:
At the request of an AGC contractor we are changing the standard specification on Pole-Mounted sign supports. The previous change to this spec asked for the contractor to provide calculations. We have been advised that the contractors are not able to provide this information so it has been removed. In doing this we have also limited the sizes of the sign panels and panel assemblies on the poles in order to not require calculations. Signs are now limited to 1.2 meters/ 48 inches wide ant 1.5 meters/ 60 inches high, and sign panel assemblies are limited to 1.2 meters/ 48 inches wide.
