Building a monolith sign
Creating a 2mtr by 2.3mtr x 100mm monolith sign from scratch
PIC 1
A steel frame was constructed from 100mm x 50mm box, this was then cross linked with 25mm box to give support to the panels. Feet where added (although at the top of the frame in the picture) These mate up to 100mm x 50mm x 700mm foundation legs that I have concreted into the ground. The frame was then powder coated in zinc primer & white topcoat
The panels are secured solely with VHB tapePIC 2
The frame with both panels on & now standing on its feet these will eventually be bolted to the foundation below ground level. The edges will be capped with 1mm aluminium plate. ( Although pictures of this have been mislaid)PIC 3
Edges capped and the complete sign spray finished .PIC 4
All graphics are printed & finished with a satin textured laminate.PIC 5
Installed & finishedA big thanks to Terry Bull for help with foundations & siting
