Introduction -- Fabrication -- Installation -- Maintenance.Final report;Many State and local agencies have developed innovative procedures and devices to facilitate highway sign fabrication, installation, and maintenance. This handbook describes several of these innovations. A literature review and nationwide search was made to gather information on innovations. The innovations that were received ranged from very simple, but effective tools, to more elaborate sign trucks. Innovations were developed from new uses for existing equipment and modifications to existing equipment or procedures to provide a more efficient use for it. A total of 27 innovations are described in the report. The information is provided in a concise format and includes a description, procedure for the product's use, the benefits attained, and a person to contact for further information.Performed by Bellomo-McGee, Inc. in cooperation with the National Safety Council, under contract no.
