A. Quality StandardsThe materials, products, equipment and performance specifications described within establish a standard of required function, dimension, appearance, performance and quality to be met by the Fabricator. B. Structural DesignDetails on design intent drawings indicate a design approach for sign structure but do not necessarily include all fabrication details required for the complete structural integrity of the signs, including consideration for static, dynamic and erection loads during handling, erecting, and service at the installed locations, nor do they necessarily consider the preferred shop practices of the individual Fabricators. Therefore, it shall be the responsibility of the Fabricator to perform the complete structural design and engineering of the signs and to incorporate all the safety features necessary to adequately support the sign for its intended use and purpose and to protect SCSU. Fabricator shall also be responsible for ensuring that all signs meet local, state and federal codes.
C. Vandalism DesignFabrication and installation design is to withstand severe abuse and souvenir theft vandalism, but not less than the equivalent of resisting simple hand implements and tools (screwdrivers, knives, coins, keys, and similar items), and adult physical force. All hardware and fasteners within reach shall be vandal resistant.
D. SubstitutionNo substitution will be considered unless SCSU has received written request for approval. Fabricator may recommend equal or better equipment or method, but will be required to provide full documentation establishing such a substitu-tion’s equality or superiority as measured in the following:
• compliance with the visual design intent;
• cost;
• ease of maintenance; and
• performance.
The burden of proof of the merit of the proposed substitute is upon the Fabricator. SCSUs decision of approval or disapproval of a proposed substitution shall be final.
E. Material HandlingThe Fabricator is to pack, wrap, crate, bundle, box, bag, or otherwise package, handle, transport, and store all fabricat-ed work as necessary to provide protection from damage by every cause. Fabricator shall provide clear and legible identifying information on all product packaging to ensure proper on-site identification and installation.
F. Sign Specifications: Construction MethodologyThe drawings call for a variety of fabrication techniques. Fabricators are given leeway to fabricate the signs to meet the intent of the designs depicted by the drawings.
1. Because different systems of extrusions may result in slightly different dimensional requirements, the total height and width dimensions described in the signconstruction on the drawings may be considered “nominal” for the purposes of cost quote.
2. Sign faces are to be fabricated using aluminum plate of varying thicknesses, as specified on design intent drawings, with a minimum thickness of .125" unless otherwise noted.
3. Unless otherwise noted on the design intent drawings, all cut-out push-through copy is to be routed from a single sheet of white acrylic, with a minimum thickness of 3/8" and pushed through 1/16". Routed letters and shapes that are bonded to a separate acrylic sheet are not acceptable; they must be routed from a single sheet.
• Acrylic is to be attached to the back of the sign using adhesive, mechanical fasteners, or both depending on the design specifications.
• All letter knock-outs (interior of letter forms) are to be stud mounted through the acrylic.
• When illuminating the acrylic face with Fluorescent or Neon, 7328 shall be the standard white acrylic.
• When illuminating the acrylic face with LED, 2447 shall be the standard white acrylic.
• Acceptable spacing between the push-through acrylic and the cut-out aluminum is 1/32" to 1/16" depending on the copy height (if the copy is larger than 32", alternate spacing may be used to allow for the change in material expansion).
4. Sign cabinet seams shall be sealed to ensure they are watertight.
5. All finishes are to be satin finish, free from fading, peeling or cracking. Paint preparation of all exterior metal surfaces of the sign to include removal of all scratches and imperfections, sanding and chemical etching. Substrate cleaning, preparation, paint application and paint thick-ness to be in strict compliance with Matthews Paint or AkzoNobel published recommendations. Acceleration of the drying process is not allowed. Clear final top coat is required
6. Except where approved otherwise by SCSU, conceal fasteners.
7. Any sign faces smaller than 8’ by 20’ are to be fabricat-ed from 1 piece of seamless material.
8. On welded joints, dimensional and structural welding defects will not be accepted, including but not limited to: poor weld contours, including excessive bead convexity and reinforcement, and considerable concavity or under-sized welds; cracks; undercutting; porosity; incomplete fusion; inadequate penetration; spatter; and non-metallic inclusions. Welding is to be performed by AWS (or similar) certified personnel, following AWS Standard Welding Procedure Specifications (SWPSs) for steel, aluminum, and stainless steel as appropriate.
9. Non-welded joints between various portions of signs must have a tight, hairline-type appearance, without gaps. Provide sufficient fastenings to preclude looseness, racking, or similar movement.
10. Provide drain holes as needed to prevent accumula-tion of water within signs. Holes must be inconspicuous and be in inconspicuous locations; holes must be located such that drainage does not occur onto signs, or other surfaces subject to staining. Provide internal system of baffles to prevent “light leaks” through drain holes of illuminated signs. Provide color-coordinated insect screening over drain holes.
11. Non-illuminated sign faces are to have lettering and graphics created as silk-screening or as surface-applied vinyl typography using Oracal exterior grade, minimum 5-year warranty, as noted in the design intent drawings.
12. Visible metal joints must adhere to a fit tolerance of .01".
13. Unlit channel letter faces must be .25" aluminum. Channel letter returns must be .080" aluminum.
G. Sign Specifications: Illumination & ElectricalIt shall be the responsibility of the Fabricator to perform the complete electrical design for illuminated signs. Illuminated signs shall be designed by an electrical engineer and shall be fabricated and wired to be compliant with current UL listing requirements, and shall be UL certified.
1. All internally illuminated sign cabinets are to have an access panel that is tight fitting, lightproof and water-proof. Access panels are to be in an accessible location, out of sight, and shall be shown on shop drawings.
2. Internally illuminated signs are to have an adequate internal system of ventilation to assure a uniform dissipa-tion of heat from electrical components of electrically powered and illuminated signs, heat (solar) absorption by sign and other sources. Any openings in exterior surfaces
must be internally baffled to prevent light leaks and prevent entry of rain, snow, wind-blown debris, and other foreign matter, and are to be covered with interior color-coordinated insect screen.
3. Only labels required by law are permitted to be mounted on the exterior of the sign face, and they shall be located in a position that is as discreet as possible.
4. All internally illuminated interior metal surfaces shall be painted white using Matthews’ reflective white paint, or shall be lined with 3M’s Matte White Light Enhance-ment Film, to enhance and evenly distribute light.
5. All electrical components shall be built to be housed within sign cabinets. All wiring and raceways within the sign are to be completely enclosed. Internal illumination by LED is required to provide adequate and even illumina-tion over the face of the sign without hot spots or shadows. “Halo” effects, “spreading” or similar light spill due to excessive transmission of the backlight source shall be minimized.
6. Illumination to be provided by LED as specified on design intent drawings. Internal hardware must not be visible through the translucent letterforms and graphics.
7. All internally illuminated exterior signs are to have their own electric eye on/off control to turn the sign on at night and off in the morning, unless SCSU specifies a need for a timer. Location of eye to be shown on shop draw-ings.
8. Verify location of power provided by others prior to sign fabrication.
9. Face-lit channel letters with a 16" or shorter cap height shall be trimless. Face-lit channel letters taller than 16" may use a low-profile trim cap. Internally illuminated channel letters shall be illuminated using LED, unless otherwise noted on the design intent drawings. Trans-formers for channel letters shall be remote transformers wherever possible. If remote transformers are not applica-ble, then all electrical components shall be contained within the channel letter itself. Raceways are not accept-able unless specifically noted on the design intent drawing or if approved by SCSU. All raceways must be painted the same color as the wall on which the sign will be mounted. Channel letters to be painted on the inside with Matthews’ reflective white paint, or lined with 3M’s Matte White Light Enhancement Film to enhance and evenly distribute light.
I. Fonts/TypefacesThe fonts used for this project were selected specifically for this project by SCSU, and include those listed in the graphic standards. It is the responsibility of the fabricator to purchase the fonts.
No substitution of any other typefaces may be made. Under no circumstances are typefaces to be electronically distorted (“squeezed” or “extended”) for purposes of fitting to the specified sign or general alteration of the sign face composi-tion unless noted in the drawings. This includes (but is not limited to) stretching, squeezing, tilting, outlining or shadowing.
1. All letterforms, symbols or graphics shall be repro-duced either by photographic or computer-generated means. Hand-cut characters are not acceptable. Cutting shall be done in such manner that edges and corners of finished letterforms will be sharp and true. Letterforms with nicked, cut, ragged, rounded corners, and similar disfigurements will not be acceptable.
2. All letterforms shall be made from material and gauge as indicated on design intent drawings. Typefaces shall be replicated as indicated on the drawing.
3. Ligatures are to be turned off.
4. Apostrophes are to be used, not footmarks. Note that there is a difference in most fonts.
5. Silk-screened and vinyl copy is to match the sheen of the copy panel background (satin). Edges of letters shall be straight and corners sharp. Surface of letters shall be uniform in color finish, and free from pinholes and other imperfections.
6. Silk-screened images shall be executed with photo screens prepared from original art. No hand-cut screens will be accepted. Original art shall be defined as artwork that is a first generation reproduction of the specified art.
7. Silk-screening shall be highest quality, with sharp lines and no sawtooths or uneven ink coverage. Screens shall be photographically produced. Application of inks through screens shall consist of one flood pass and one print pass. Images shall be uniform in color and ink thickness. Images shall be free from squeegee marks and lines resulting from improper print stroke or screen off contact height. Signs shall be placed in adequate drying racks with minimum of 2 inches between racks for ample airflow. Sign racks shall have system of forced airflow between layers to provide proper drying and curing of inks. After signs have dried completely according to the ink manufac-turer’s time allowance, signs may be packaged.
8. The edges and corners of routed letterforms shall be sharp and true. Letterforms with nicked, cut, ragged, rounded (positive or negative) corners, and similar disfigurements will not be acceptable.
9. Letterforms shall be aligned so as to maintain a base line parallel to the sign format, with margins and layout as indicated on design intent drawings and approved shop drawings. Vertical strokes shall be plumb.
10. Vinyl graphics and letterforms shall be computer-cut.
J. Permits and VariancesFabricator shall be knowledgeable of relevant local code requirements and honor same in fabrication and installa-tion. Where applicable, it is the responsibility of the Fabrica-tor to secure any and all necessary permits for signage installation. It is the responsibility of SCSU to secure varianc-es, should any be required. It is SCSU’s responsibility to call the appropriate agency to have all underground utilities properly located and marked. Any damage to below-grade utilities or structures for which SCSU has provided adequate location information is the responsibility of the Fabricator.
K. Site VisitPrior to installation of the signs, the Fabricator is to visit the proposed sites to observe existing conditions and verify all signage required and its location with UNO. At this time the locations shall be staked using a non-permanent visible device such as spray chalk or non-permanent paint. Certain signs may be located on sloped grades and may require uneven footings for each post. Site-verify all locations to determine special requirements for footing templates, if required.
The final Sign Message Schedule and Sign Location Plan shall be consulted together and shall be approved by SCSU to determine the precise location for each sign. Any neces-sary adjustments will be made with the approval of SCSU.
L. Masonry/FootingsAny concrete bases for signage are to be poured in place and footings are to extend beneath the frost line, or deeper to meet local code. All footings or bases should be poured within a form and level with grade unless otherwise specified in the design intent drawings. Foundation/footings should be level with grade unless otherwise noted or as specified by state or local code. Foundation/footings should not extend above grade more than 2" and exposed edges should be finished with a bevel to prevent chipping. It’s recommended that the concrete be floated by machine or hand before finishing in order to embed larger aggregates especially when part of the footing or base extends above ground. Concrete surface should have a smooth or brushed
finish grade appearance. All concrete bases and footings should be edged to break any bond with the form and create a neat appearance. All forms should be removed once the concrete has properly cured. Concrete and reinforcement specifications shall be shown on shop drawing submittals. The Fabricator is responsible for the necessary templates, mounting plates and hardware for concrete and masonry bases. A minimum 1’ rock bed with landscape edging or concrete pad must be added around each concrete base as protection from landscaping mainte-nance. All masonry (concrete block, poured concrete, brick, slab, veneer, mortar, etc.) is to be properly treated and protected to maintain the structural integrity of the masonry work with exposure to all environmental conditions found at the site. For exposed or visible masonry, this shall include the application of protective sealers or similar finishes to diminish the effects of close-proximity sprinkling or irriga-tion systems.
Signs are to be mounted on J-bolt footings, centered on the concrete base or footing, and engineered per code, unless otherwise specified in the design intent drawings.
M. Wind LoadSigns, banners and mounting devices shall be engineered to withstand a minimum 30-psf wind load normal to the sign, or greater as per local code, in addition to the weight of the sign. The Fabricator shall determine appropriate method of anchoring signs to the locations specified to meet these requirements as well as all local code requirements.
N. MountingAll signs are to be mounted level and true. All exposed hardware is to be touch-up painted on site as required. It is preferred that all bolts, nuts, washers, or other fasteners be stainless steel. However galvanized steel is acceptable, so long as all exposed surfaces are sealed.
While sign type drawings may specify or indicate possible mounting and/or mounting hardware details, the Fabricator will be able to substitute equal or better hardware and techniques, based upon their experience with similar mounting situations and as long as the visual appearance of the sign is not compromised from that shown in the design intent drawings.
All signage products must be installed such that there are no misalignments between visible components. Sign elements intended to be removable or changeable after installation must function as intended without binding, sticking or blocking. It will be the responsibility of the Fabricator to correct any installation misalignments at no charge.Fabricator and their installers are expected to have knowl-
edge of ADA mounting guidelines and city zoning codes, general sign locating practices, and any particular unique installations defined by SCSU. It is the desire of SCSU that the Fabricator follow these guidelines as well as architectural cues in installing for the best visual placement, keeping a reasonable distance from protruding objects. Any signage that is improperly located is to be moved to the proper location by the Fabricator, and repairs to wall surfaces and signage are to be completed at the Fabricator’s expense.
If the installers are unable to make a decision about any sign locations, they must contact SCSU, providing a graphic representation of the questionable area, or for on-site options.
O. ElectricalSCSU will be responsible for providing a power source to within 10 feet of the base of each sign requiring power (either at grade or below grade). Power is to be 120 or 277 (LED illumination should be 120) volts at 60 cycles unless otherwise noted in the documents. It is the responsibility of the Fabricator to manipulate the existing conduit to its proper location, install an external disconnect, extend the conduit through the concrete base (or posts) to align with the point of hookup, and run the power supply through it. Conduit running from the disconnect to the sign shall travel within the concrete base, not on its surface. The Fabricator will be responsible for the final electrical connection.
P. PunchlistIt is required that the successful Bidder complete a walk through with SCSU immediately following installation to identify any errors, such as construction or installation issues. Such errors are to be corrected in a timely manner, and to the satisfaction of SCSU.
Q. Site Safety and RestorationDuring the installation period, successful Bidders and subcontractors are responsible for their own safety, and are expected to maintain a safe environment for pedestrians. Successful Bidders and subcontractors are to keep SCSU’s premises and the adjoining premises, driveways and streets clean and clear. Job site shall be left safe, neat and clean at the completion of each day’s operation. Successful Bidders and subcontractors are also expected to temporarily maintain old signs in order to continue their directional and identification functions, as well as to maintain signage that meets MUTCD standards during the installation period. At the completion of work, successful Bidder and subcontrac-tors shall remove all rubbish, tools, equipment, and surplus materials, from and about the premises, and shall leave the site as originally found. Successful Bidder shall be responsi-ble for repairing or correcting damage to other contractors’ work resulting from successful Bidder’s work.R. Signage Warranty
FABRICATION SPECIFICATIONS: EXTERIOR SIGNAGE
The successful Bidder is to provide a written five (5) year full replacement warranty to SCSU that all signs will be free of defects due to craft work including, but not limited to:
1. Bubbling, chalking, rusting or other disintegration of the sign panel, graphics or of the edges.
2. Corrosion appearing beneath paint and vinyl surfaces, on sign panels, brackets, posts or other support assemblies (except as an obvious result of vandalism or other external damage).

Internally illuminated channel letters shall be illuminated using LED, unless otherwise noted on the design intent drawings. Trans-formers for channel letters shall be remote transformers wherever possible. If remote transformers are not appli-cable, then all electrical components shall be contained within the channel letter itself. Raceways are not accept-able unless specifically noted on the design intent drawing or if approved by UNO. All raceways must be painted the same color as the wall on which the sign will be mounted. Channel letters to be painted on the inside with Matthews’ reflective white paint, or lined with 3M’s Matte White Light Enhancement Film to enhance and evenly distribute light.
I. Fonts/TypefacesThe fonts used for this project were selected specifically for this project by UNO, and include those listed in the graphic standards. It is the responsibility of the fabricator to purchase the fonts.
No substitution of any other typefaces may be made. Under no circumstances are typefaces to be electronically distorted (“squeezed” or “extended”) for purposes of fitting to the specified sign or general alteration of the sign face composi-tion unless noted in the drawings. This includes (but is not limited to) stretching, squeezing, tilting, outlining or shadowing.
1. All letterforms, symbols or graphics shall be repro-duced either by photographic or computer-generated means. Hand-cut characters are not acceptable. Cutting shall be done in such manner that edges and corners of finished letterforms will be sharp and true. Letterforms with nicked, cut, ragged, rounded corners, and similar disfigurements will not be acceptable.
2. All letterforms shall be made from material and gauge as indicated on design intent drawings. Typefaces shall be replicated as indicated on the drawing.
3. Ligatures are to be turned off.

9. Letterforms shall be aligned so as to maintain a base line parallel to the sign format, with margins and layout as indicated on design intent drawings and approved shop drawings. Vertical strokes shall be plumb.
10. Vinyl graphics and letterforms shall be computer-cut.
J. Permits and VariancesFabricator shall be knowledgeable of relevant local code requirements and honor same in fabrication and installa-tion. Where applicable, it is the responsibility of the Fabrica-tor to secure any and all necessary permits for signage installation. It is the responsibility of UNO to secure variances, should any be required. It is UNO ’s responsibility to call the appropriate agency to have all underground utilities properly located and marked. Any damage to below-grade utilities or structures for which UNO has provided adequate location information is the responsibility of the Fabricator.
K. Site VisitPrior to installation of the signs, the Fabricator is to visit the proposed sites to observe existing conditions and verify all signage required and its location with UNO. At this time the locations shall be staked using a non-permanent visible device such as spray chalk or non-permanent paint. Certain signs may be located on sloped grades and may require uneven footings for each post. Site-verify all locations to determine special requirements for footing templates, if required.
The final Sign Message Schedule and Sign Location Plan shall be consulted together and shall be approved by UNO to determine the precise location for each sign. Any neces-sary adjustments will be made with the approval of UNO.
L. Masonry/FootingsAny concrete bases for signage are to be poured in place and footings are to extend beneath the frost line, or deeper to meet local code. All footings or bases should be poured within a form and level with grade unless otherwise specified in the design intent drawings. Foundation/footings should be level with grade unless otherwise noted or as specified by state or local code. Foundation/footings should not extend above grade more than 2" and exposed edges should be finished with a bevel to prevent chipping. It’s recommended that the concrete be floated by machine or hand before finishing in order to embed larger aggregates especially when part of the footing or base extends above
ground. Concrete surface should have a smooth or brushed finish grade appearance. All concrete bases and footings should be edged to break any bond with the form and create a neat appearance. All forms should be removed once the concrete has properly cured. Concrete and reinforcement specifications shall be shown on shop drawing submittals. The Fabricator is responsible for the necessary templates, mounting plates and hardware for concrete and masonry bases. A minimum 1’ rock bed with landscape edging or concrete pad must be added around each concrete base as protection from landscaping mainte-nance. All masonry (concrete block, poured concrete, brick, slab, veneer, mortar, etc.) is to be properly treated and protected to maintain the structural integrity of the masonry work with exposure to all environmental conditions found at the site. For exposed or visible masonry, this shall include the application of protective sealers or similar finishes to diminish the effects of close-proximity sprinkling or irriga-tion systems.
Signs are to be mounted on J-bolt footings, centered on the concrete base or footing, and engineered per code, unless otherwise specified in the design intent drawings.
M. Wind LoadSigns, banners and mounting devices shall be engineered to withstand a minimum 30-psf wind load normal to the sign, or greater as per local code, in addition to the weight of the sign. The Fabricator shall determine appropriate method of anchoring signs to the locations specified to meet these requirements as well as all local code requirements.
N. MountingAll signs are to be mounted level and true. All exposed hardware is to be touch-up painted on site as required. It is preferred that all bolts, nuts, washers, or other fasteners be stainless steel. However galvanized steel is acceptable, so long as all exposed surfaces are sealed.
While sign type drawings may specify or indicate possible mounting and/or mounting hardware details, the Fabricator will be able to substitute equal or better hardware and techniques, based upon their experience with similar mounting situations and as long as the visual appearance of the sign is not compromised from that shown in the design intent drawings.
All signage products must be installed such that there are no misalignments between visible components. Sign elements intended to be removable or changeable after installation must function as intended without binding, sticking or blocking. It will be the responsibility of the Fabricator to correct any installation misalignments at no charge.
Fabricator and their installers are expected to have knowl-edge of ADA mounting guidelines and city zoning codes, general sign locating practices, and any particular unique installations defined by UNO. It is the desire of UNO that the Fabricator follow these guidelines as well as architectural cues in installing for the best visual placement, keeping a reasonable distance from protruding objects. Any signage that is improperly located is to be moved to the proper location by the Fabricator, and repairs to wall surfaces and signage are to be completed at the Fabricator’s expense.
If the installers are unable to make a decision about any sign locations, they can contact UNO, providing a graphic representation of the questionable area, or for on-site options.
O. ElectricalUNO will be responsible for providing a power source to within 10 feet of the base of each sign requiring power (either at grade or below grade). Power is to be 120 or 277 (LED illumination should be 120) volts at 60 cycles unless otherwise noted in the documents. It is the responsibility of the Fabricator to manipulate the existing conduit to its proper location, install an external disconnect, extend the conduit through the concrete base (or posts) to align with the point of hookup, and run the power supply through it. Conduit running from the disconnect to the sign shall travel within the concrete base, not on its surface. The Fabricator will be responsible for the final electrical connection.
P. PunchlistIt is required that the successful Bidder complete a walk through with UNO immediately following installation to identify any errors, such as construction or installation issues. Such errors are to be corrected in a timely manner, and to the satisfaction of UNO.
Q. Site Safety and RestorationDuring the installation period, successful Bidders and subcontractors are responsible for their own safety, and are expected to maintain a safe environment for pedestrians. Successful Bidders and subcontractors are to keep UNO’s premises and the adjoining premises, driveways and streets clean and clear. Job site shall be left safe, neat and clean at the completion of each day’s operation. Successful Bidders and subcontractors are also expected to temporarily maintain old signs in order to continue their directional and identification functions, as well as to maintain signage that meets MUTCD standards during the installation period. At the completion of work, successful Bidder and subcontrac-tors shall remove all rubbish, tools, equipment, and surplus materials, from and about the premises, and shall leave the site as originally found. Successful Bidder shall be respon-sible for repairing or correcting damage to other contrac-tors’ work resulting from successful Bidder’s work.

A. Quality StandardsThe materials, products, equipment and performance specifications described within establish a standard of required function, dimension, appearance, performance and quality to be met by the Fabricator. B. Structural DesignDetails on design intent drawings indicate a design approach for sign structure but do not necessarily include all fabrication details required for the complete structural integrity of the signs, including consideration for static, dynamic and erection loads during handling, erecting, and service at the installed locations, nor do they necessarily consider the preferred shop practices of the individual Fabricators. Therefore, it shall be the responsibility of the Fabricator to perform the complete structural design and engineering of the signs and to incorporate all the safety features necessary to adequately support the sign for its intended use and purpose and to protect UNO. Fabricator shall also be responsible for ensuring that all signs meet local, state and federal codes.
C. Vandalism DesignFabrication and installation design is to withstand severe abuse and souvenir theft vandalism, but not less than the equivalent of resisting simple hand implements and tools (screwdrivers, knives, coins, keys, and similar items), and adult physical force. All hardware and fasteners within reach shall be vandal resistant.
D. SubstitutionNo substitution will be considered unless UNO has received written request for approval. Fabricator may recommend equal or better equipment or method, but will be required to provide full documentation establishing such a substitution’s equality or superiority as measured in the following:

L. Masonry/FootingsAny concrete bases for signage are to be poured in place and footings are to extend beneath the frost line, or deeper to meet local code. All footings or bases should be poured within a form and level with grade unless otherwise specified in the design intent drawings. Foundation/footings should be level with grade unless otherwise noted or as specified by state or local code. Foundation/footings should not extend above grade more than 2" and exposed edges should be finished with a bevel to prevent chipping. It’s recommended that the concrete be floated by machine or hand before finishing in order to embed larger aggregates especially when part of the footing or base extends above
ground. Concrete surface should have a smooth or brushed finish grade appearance. All concrete bases and footings should be edged to break any bond with the form and create a neat appearance. All forms should be removed once the concrete has properly cured. Concrete and reinforcement specifications shall be shown on shop drawing submittals. The Fabricator is responsible for the necessary templates, mounting plates and hardware for concrete and masonry bases. A minimum 1’ rock bed with landscape edging or concrete pad must be added around each concrete base as protection from landscaping mainte-nance. All masonry (concrete block, poured concrete, brick, slab, veneer, mortar, etc.) is to be properly treated and protected to maintain the structural integrity of the masonry work with exposure to all environmental conditions found at the site. For exposed or visible masonry, this shall include the application of protective sealers or similar finishes to diminish the effects of close-proximity sprinkling or irriga-tion systems.

M. Wind LoadSigns, banners and mounting devices shall be engineered to withstand a minimum 30-psf wind load normal to the sign, or greater as per local code, in addition to the weight of the sign. The Fabricator shall determine appropriate method of anchoring signs to the locations specified to meet these requirements as well as all local code requirements.
N. MountingAll signs are to be mounted level and true. All exposed hardware is to be touch-up painted on site as required. It is preferred that all bolts, nuts, washers, or other fasteners be stainless steel. However galvanized steel is acceptable, so long as all exposed surfaces are sealed.
While sign type drawings may specify or indicate possible mounting and/or mounting hardware details, the Fabricator will be able to substitute equal or better hardware and techniques, based upon their experience with similar mounting situations and as long as the visual appearance of the sign is not compromised from that shown in the design intent drawings.
All signage products must be installed such that there are no misalignments between visible components. Sign elements intended to be removable or changeable after installation must function as intended without binding, sticking or blocking. It will be the responsibility of the Fabricator to correct any installation misalignments at no charge.
Fabricator and their installers are expected to have knowl-edge of ADA mounting guidelines and city zoning codes, general sign locating practices, and any particular unique installations defined by UNO. It is the desire of UNO that the Fabricator follow these guidelines as well as architectural cues in installing for the best visual placement, keeping a reasonable distance from protruding objects. Any signage that is improperly located is to be moved to the proper location by the Fabricator, and repairs to wall surfaces and signage are to be completed at the Fabricator’s expense.
If the installers are unable to make a decision about any sign locations, they can contact UNO, providing a graphic representation of the questionable area, or for on-site options.
O. ElectricalUNO will be responsible for providing a power source to within 10 feet of the base of each sign requiring power (either at grade or below grade). Power is to be 120 or 277 (LED illumination should be 120) volts at 60 cycles unless otherwise noted in the documents. It is the responsibility of the Fabricator to manipulate the existing conduit to its proper location, install an external disconnect, extend the conduit through the concrete base (or posts) to align with the point of hookup, and run the power supply through it. Conduit running from the disconnect to the sign shall travel within the concrete base, not on its surface. The Fabricator will be responsible for the final electrical connection.

Fabricator is responsible for matching all colors and materials as specified and are required to provide the Owner color and material samples for approval.
CAUTION! CONSISTENT AND ACCURATE COLOR REPRODUCTION IN THIS DOCUMENT CANNOT BE ASSURED DUE TO THE LIMITATIONS OF COLOR COPYING TECHNOLOGY.
The Coated Pantone Matching System®, Akzo Nobel Paint system and Matthews Acrylic Polyurethatue are used for specifying signage color matches. (In the absence of actual sign material color chip reference sets, actual specified product color swatches should be referenced for color matching.)
Shown here are approximations of the primary signage background colors and supporting accent colors. Actual color finishes on signage must be matte or low luster (not shiny or glossy) and exclusively a premium acrylic polyurethane. Except for the high gloss anti-graffiti coating (Sikkens LV Anti Graffiti Clear).
Signage paints produced by Matthews Paint and Akzo Nobel Paint Company are to be the standard reference.
Vinyl Films from 3M, Oracal and Avery Graphics are to be the standard.
Color application varies per sign type. Refer to specific design intent drawings for application details.
