SIGN BOARD
from
JKR TAMPIN
- High Frequency
of damage of JKR Sign boards,which had to be fixed near to the road pavement
due to lack of road reserve, geographical constraints such as slope, embankment
and sight distance, being knocked and spoilt by vehicles, poses a huge
challenge to District JKR maintenance teams, not only in the repetitive
maintenance job but also a tremendous increase in costs.
- Intelligence
Sign Boad was the brainchild idea and innovation of the QCC group JKR
District Tampin, Negeri Sembilan which is designed in such a way as to
overcome the most probable causes like the traditional sign board with
two posts being too stiff, sign board being fixed near to the pavement
andalso the modern long vehicles.
- The Intelligence
Sign Board is more flexible in design. When it is being knocked by a vehicle,
the sign board shall absorb the impact force and rotate in the direction
of the impact. After the impact the sign board will rotate in the reverse
direction and back to the original position without any damage with a help
of a mechanism which was invented by the QCC group called
- The Intelligent
Sign Board had gone through the stringent impact test by the group with
the departmental truck. The result of the impact test was amazing as compared
to the same test with the traditional sign board.
- After the impact,
the Intelligence Sign Board experience no damage, but for the traditional
sign board, the plate and post were bent and damaged. The Intelligence
Sign Board will solve the problem of high maintainance cost for sign boards
to be fixed near to the road pavent due to the above mentioned constraints.
