11.15. Direction Signs Types CC1 and CC2.
11.15.1. Types and Locations. There are two types of direction signs: the ceiling mounted Type
CC1 sign and the wall mounted Type CC2 sign. A direction sign should be located at each
decision point in the path of travel, for example, opposite elevators or stairways, and at each
corridor intersection.
11.15.2. Information. Direction signs should indicate room numbers. The destinations most often
sought by people entering the building for the first time (such as Finance, Pass and ID, or Vehicle
Registration) should be listed by name. All others should be identified by room number alone.
This greatly simplifies both initial fabrication and maintenance.
