Book Synopsis Overhead Guide Sign Visibility Factors by : Anthony C. Stein
Download or read book Overhead Guide Sign Visibility Factors written by Anthony C. Stein and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The project discussed in this report concerned the night use of overhead guide signs, including button and reflectorized copy and all practical combinations of reflectorized and opaque backgrounds. This project was a follow up effort to the literature review by Gordon. Gordon's review found areas requiring further investigation, including the comparison of nonilluminated nonretroreflectorized signs with both illuminated nonretroreflectorized and retroreflectorized signs.

Book Synopsis Overhead Guide Sign Retroreflectivity and Illumination by : Mohammed Obeidat
Download or read book Overhead Guide Sign Retroreflectivity and Illumination written by Mohammed Obeidat and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roadway guide sign visibility during darkness is fundamental to driver safety, especially elderly drivers. Guide sign visibility can be improved by external sign illumination or the use of retroreflective sheeting on signs. Because energy conservation is essential in the midst of a worldwide energy crisis, various Departments of Transportation have investigated usage of energy-efficient lighting technology with overhead guide signs. This report presents results of a survey related to overhead sign lighting usability by states, a laboratory experiment to compare the light distribution of five light sources used to illuminate overhead guide sign by several states, a cost analysis for the tested light sources, a field experiment to compare the visibility of three retroreflective sheeting used by states, a cost analysis for the tested retroreflective guide signs, and an analysis by determining the most cost-effective method of increasing overhead guide sign visibility to drivers during nighttime. A laboratory experiment was conducted to compare the light distribution of three conventional light sources: Metal Halide, Mercury Vapor, and High Pressure Sodium, and two new generation light sources: Induction lighting, and Light Emitting Diode. Combining two decision criteria, the light distribution and the cost, resulted in finding the Induction lighting to be the recommended light source for those states that want to continue illuminating their overhead guide signs. A field experiment was conducted to compare three types of sign sheeting, Engineering Grade (type I), Diamond Grade (type XI), and High Intensity (type IV), in order to determine the sign sheeting material that best improves sign visibility. Combining the decision criteria to compare these three retroreflective sheeting, the visibility and the cost, High Intensity (type IV) is the recommended sign to be used by DOTs, followed by Diamond Grade (type XI). In comparing the best options used to increase sign visibility, sign illumination and sign retroreflectivity, it is found that using retroreflective sheeting is more cost effective than sign illuminating.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis will be of interest to traffic engineers, planners, and others interested in making sure that motorists' needs for directional information on freeways are being met. Information is provided on policies and procedures used by states in evaluating freeway guide signs and replacing those that are outdated or deteriorated. Many signs on freeways and other controlled-access highways have exceeded their service life and are no longer serving motorists' needs. This report of the Transportation Research Board describes the policies, proceduress, and criteria used by states for freeway sign evaluation and replacement programs.
