Talk:903.3 Ground-Mounted Sign Supports

Would it be possible to have the sign types be explained in this section or somewhere else in 903? For example, this section should explain when to use SHR2L-1 or SHR2L-3, and STR2L-1 or STR2L-3. I have been unable to locate a section in the EPG that expands on this subject.

Keith L. Smith: Good comment. The SHR2L-1 vs. SHR2L-3 and STR2L-1 vs. STR2L-3 coding pertains to how they are fabricated. On Sheet 9 of 18 in Std. Plan 903.02 the code is explained: ST = Structural, SH = Flat Sheet, R2 = Type 3 Sheeting, R4 = Type 7 Sheeting, L-1 = screen print, reverse screen print or translucent cutable films and L-3 = Direct Applied. Traffic is considering expanding the guidance in the EPG on this very issue, but has elected to withhold any changes for now.
