The ground sign is identical to the monument sign, except it is double-faced and does not use

the dynamic base. It is available in three standard heights, 6'0", 7'3", and 10'6", and is installed perpendicular to the road.

Note: The ground sign may be fabricated as a single-faced sign.

The monument sign, on page 05, is preferred over the ground sign as the primary facility identification sign wherever site conditions permit installation of the dynamic base. When installation of the dynamic base is not possible, the ground sign may be used.

The ground sign may also be used to identify a portion of a facility, such as a building.

Graphic Signatures

To take advantage of the horizontal sign format and to keep typography as large as possible, the compact signature arrangement is preferred for the ground sign. When two or more lines are required for the signature typography, the top line is positioned to the right of the signature Monogram. Examples of typical signatures are shown in the drawings at the right.

Note: The Monogram may not be used alone on this sign.

Typography

For information on signature typography and other typography, see the general guidelines on page 02.

Color

To ensure legibility of the graphic signature under adverse viewing conditions, black is used in the signature Monogram and typography. As usual, in the graphic signature Laser Red

is used only in the Laser Line.

Dynamic Monogram

As an option, the one-quarter version of the Dynamic Monogram may be used on the ground sign.

Lighting

The ground sign may be lighted with a combination of internal and external illumination:

•The signature Monogram and Laser Line may be internally illuminated.

•The signature typography and other typography (if used) and the Dynamic Monogram (if used) may be externally illuminated

This sign may also be

•only externally illuminated

•nonilluminated

The cantilever-mounted wall sign is double-faced and is available in two standard sizes: 4'0"x 4'0" and 6'0"x 6'0".

Generally, this sign is used as a supporting sign along with a primary facility identification sign. Nevertheless, the cantilever-mounted wall sign may be used as the primary facility identification sign at locations where

•space is insufficient to install a pylon, monument, pole, or ground sign

•such a mount (perpendicular to the mounting surface) enhances visibility of the sign

When the sign is used as the primary facility identification sign, it should be illuminated. When used as a supporting sign, it may be nonilluminated.

Dynamic Monogram

The Dynamic Monogram is not used on cantilever-mounted wall signs.

Lighting

The entire sign face may be either

•internally illuminated

(with the face of the sign white)

•nonilluminated

(with the face of the sign very light grey)

The flush-mounted wall sign is single-faced

and is available in two standard sizes: 3'0"x 7'6" and 5'1"x 12'9".

Generally, this sign is used as a supporting sign along with a primary facility identification sign. Nevertheless, the flush-mounted wall sign may be used as the primary facility identification sign at locations where

•space is insufficient to install a pylon, monument, pole, or ground sign

•such a mount (parallel to the mounting surface) enhances visibility of the sign

When the sign is used as the primary facility identification sign, it should be illuminated. When used as a supporting sign, it may be nonilluminated.
