Follow the sign structure specifications for the Type B2 or Type B3 sign, as appropriate.
9.9. Placement and Visibility. The sign is usually placed perpendicular to the roadway. Graphics

directions.
9.10. Usage. The Type H3 sign is used in addition to other Type H signs to identify a unit that has an
entry point other than the main entrance to a building. The Type H4 Building Number Sign is used to
display the building address number on the side or front of a building for rapid identification.
9.11. Mounting. In the absence of installation-specific mounting requirements for visibility by
security police and fire personnel, mount the Type H4 sign directly below the Type H3 sign.
