SIGN � SIGN STRUCTURE ANALYSIS
Purpose:
To analyze and perform specification checking sign structures in accordance with the AASHTO Standard Specifications for Structure Support for Highway Signs, Luminaires and Traffic Signals 2001. The types of sign structures can be tapered tube, two post planar truss, two post tri-chord truss, four post tri-chord truss, four post four-chord truss, cantilever and center mounted structures.
Input:
Structure type, geometry, attachments, member cross-sections, material strengths, loads, footing geometry, reinforcement and other criteria.
Output:
Finite element model properties, finite element analysis results, section properties, loads and load combinations (AASHTO Group Loads), compactness, slenderness, moments and torsions, shear and axial forces, deflections, cambers , quantities, footing analysis results and reinforcement.
