NCHRP Report 796 presents proposed AASHTO LRFD Specifications for Structural Supports for Highway Signs, Luminaires, and Traffic Signals. The proposed specifications are arranged in three divisions: (1) design according to LRFD methodology; (2) construction including material specifications, fabrication, and installation; and (3) asset management including inventory, inspection, and maintenance. In addition, the report provides details regarding the reliability calibration process and results. The material in this report will be of immediate interest to highway design engineers.
A video describing the proposed AASHTO LRFD Specifications can be found here.
