ADA & WAYFINDING SIGNAGE SUPPORT
Organize the sign program before it becomes a problem in the field.
ADA and wayfinding projects can involve a large amount of information.
Room identification, directional messaging, sign types, quantities, locations, numbering, copy, plans and project requirements all have to stay coordinated as the package develops.
The Signitects provides drawing, takeoff and documentation support for sign companies, architects and project teams working through ADA and wayfinding signage programs.
ADA SIGNAGE DOCUMENTATION
Depending on the scope of the project, ADA signage drawing support may include:
- Sign type drawings
- Room identification signs
- Permanent room signage
- Restroom signs
- Stair signs
- Exit-related identification
- Directional signs
- Informational signs
- Tactile copy layouts
- Braille layouts
- Message schedules
- Sign location plans
- Sign numbering
- Sign quantities
- Drawing revisions
- Sign schedule coordination
ADA requirements can vary based on the project, location, applicable standards and authority having jurisdiction.
The Signitects creates documentation based on the project information and requirements provided.
Final compliance responsibility, field verification, professional review and jurisdictional approval remain with the appropriate project parties.
WAYFINDING DOCUMENTATION
Good wayfinding is not just a collection of directional signs.
It is a coordinated information system that helps people understand where they are, where they need to go and how to get there.
Wayfinding drawing support may include:
- Directional sign types
- Identification signs
- Floor and building directories
- Area identification
- Destination messaging
- Sign location plans
- Message schedules
- Sign numbering
- Quantity tracking
- Building and floor organization
- Drawing coordination
- Revision management
SIGN LOCATION PLANS
A sign package becomes significantly easier to manage when every sign has a defined location and identification number.
Location plans can help coordinate:
- Buildings
- Floors
- Rooms
- Sign types
- Sign numbers
- Sign messages
- Quantities
- Directional conditions
- Installation locations
The Signitects can help organize project information into structured sign location plans and schedules that make the package easier to understand, review and manage.
SIGN SCHEDULES & TAKEOFFS
Large ADA and wayfinding programs often contain hundreds or even thousands of individual signs.
A structured sign schedule helps keep those signs accounted for.
Depending on the project, schedules may track information such as:
- Sign number
- Sign type
- Building
- Floor
- Room
- Location
- Message
- Quantity
- Notes
- Drawing reference
- Revision information
The exact schedule fields should be based on the needs of the project.
