Commercial Signage| Project Identification, Construction Signs

________________________________________________________________________________________

We have all seen these project identification signs, especially around major construction sites. They say things like “Your Tax Dollars at Work,” and are normally peppered with the logos of companies and agencies associated with the project. These signs are typically oversized and made of plywood, MDO to be exact, which for single sided signs, has a polished resin side to which all the branded decals, logos and lettering is affixed.

What is interesting is that these signs are often governed by specific sign criteria, and depending on the funding source, may have differing requirements. The design elements, size, wording, font and layout as well as the type of substrate will be defined by the specific agency, most notably Caltrans or BART. Project identification signs are also used in residential housing and construction projects, but even then the plan holder, builder or architect will select a certain criteria just like the governmental agencies do.

Signworks has experience in building these signs for our construction partners, including the support structure that keeps the signs in place. We provided five such signs for Shimmick Construction when they were working on a project for SF MUNI. In fact we’re working on a similar project for a contractor working on a current BART project.

If you are a construction company who needs project identification signs we hope you will give SignWorks a call at 510-357-2000 or email us at info@signworks.us.com. We know you will be pleased with the results!
