Signage Specification & Compliance Generator
Generate ADA-compliant signage specs, materials, and installation drawings
What You Can Do
You can rapidly generate comprehensive signage documentation packages that integrate design intent with regulatory compliance. This skill produces detailed material specifications, ADA accessibility compliance matrices, and installation scheduling documents—eliminating manual compilation across multiple systems and reducing contractor revisions.
Features
automatically maps signage elements to ADA requirements (character sizes, contrast ratios, Braille specifications, mounting heights)
generates detailed specs for sign types (directional, informational, wayfinding) including materials, finishes, and durability standards
creates phased installation plans with dependencies, access requirements, and coordination notes
structures signage packages by zone, level, or functional category with cross-referencing
produces verification documents for code review and contractor sign-off
calculates quantities and specifications organized by sign type, location, and installation method
generates specification references for elevation, plan, and isometric views
Example Output
Example 1: Directional Signage Specification
- Sign Type: Wall-Mounted Directional, 24"×36"
- Materials: Aluminum frame, 3mm acrylic face, UV-resistant vinyl graphics
- Compliance: 48pt sans-serif (ADA), 70% contrast ratio verified, 60" mounting height
- Installation: Surface-mounted to drywall, stud-backed
Example 2: ADA Compliance Matrix
| Element | Requirement | Specification | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sans-serif font | Required | Arial, 48pt min | ✓ |
| Contrast ratio | 70% minimum | Black on white verified | ✓ |
| Braille labels | All directional signs | Grade 2 Braille, 0.125" dots | ✓ |
Example 3: Material Schedule Extract Wayfinding Level 1 (Main Entry): 8× directional signs, 4× informational panels, 12× level markers
