Mechanical Installation
Overview
The sign must be installed onto a super-structure designed to withstand live loads and comply with all national and local codes. Live
loads include loading from wind and seismic events. Because every sign installation is unique, there is no single procedure for
mounting.
Structures defined
Super-structure:
Customer or installer supplied structure to which the sign is mounted. Super–structures must be approved by a
qualified structural engineer.
ID sign:
Company name and/or logo sign supplied by the customer or installer. ID signs used in conjunction with Adaptive signs must
not interfere with Adaptive’s ventilation, electrical, and mounting requirements.
Super–structure design
The design of a sign’s support structure depends on a number of factors: mounting methods, building codes, foundation, sign size, sign
weight, sign height, wind loading, and seismic loading.
WARNING
WARNING
Sign must be supported (affixed to a super-structure able to withstand live loads and comply with all national
and local codes) prior to servicing, otherwise the sign may tip, causing serious injury.
