(' Modification to 

Existing Hardware 

Plasticade's SS300/SS300A Sign Stand System is a work zone traffic control device designed to regulate, warn, 

and advise road users to traverse a section of highway or street in the proper manner. The sign stand consists 

of a frame with four extendable legs and components to secure an industry standard 1.22 m x 1.22 m or 

smaller roll up fabric sign. The construction of the SS300 and SS300A sign stands are identical, except for the 

material for the extendable legs ­ the SS300 utilizes powder coated steel legs while the SS300A stand utilizes 

aluminum legs. The vertical upright structures on both stands are aluminum while the base assembly and 

associated mounting hardware are steel. The roll up fabric signs were attached to the stand using the 

integrated clamping mechanism. The as tested mounting height of the sign measures 0.33 m above grade. The 

legs were extended for testing. The SS300 stand weighs 8.5 kg, excluding the 2.3 kg roll up sign. The SS300A 

stand weighs 7.7 kg, excluding the 2.3 kg rollup sign.

3-71 (1100() 

Test of Plasticade 5S300A Sign Stand device 

with a MASH specified 11 OOC test vehicle. 

The test was run on 12/15/15. The curb 

mass of the vehicle was 1128.0 kg and the 

final test inertial mass was 1105.5 kg . Impact 

speeds were 100.0 km/h and 98.1 km/h for 

the O and 90 degree sign stands, 

respectively. For the 0 degree test, the 

11 OOC vehicle's front bumper impacted the 

vertical member of the sign stand just 

above the base assembly. The upright 

immediately yielded around the front 

bumper as the sign draped over the 

bumper and hood. The top of the sign, 

including the vertical fiberglass support, 

contacted the bottom of the windshield 

and caused some moderate cracking 

without any deformation. The sign then 

fully released from the stand. The stand 

passed underneath the vehicle, was freed, 

and exited out the rear. The sign ended up 

in front of the vehicle as it braked to a stop. 

For the 90 degree test, the 11 OOC vehicle's 

front bumper impacted the vertical member 

of the sign stand as the front of the hood 

impacted the lower section of the rollup 

sign. The upright immediately yielded 

around the front bumper as the sign 

detached from the fiberglass supports and 

draped over the bumper and hood. The 

supports detached from the stand; the 

vehicle rolled over the stand and the stand 

exited the rear as the vehicle braked to a 

stop. The test vehicle sustained negligible 

damage to the bumper and hood; there was 

no damage to the undercarriage of the test 

vehicle. There was moderate cracking to the 

windshield but no liner damage and no 

deformation. There was no penetration or 

deformation of the occupant compartment. 

PASS 
Version 10.0 (05/16) 

Page 4 of 5 

The purpose of this test was to analyze the 

Plasticade SS300 Sign Stand device's 

interaction with a MASH specified 2270P 

test vehicle and report the interactions. The 

test was run on 11 /14/16 using a black 2010 

Dodge Ram pickup. The curb mass of the 

vehicle was 2192.0 kg and the final test 

inertial mass was 2272.0 kg. Impact speeds 

were 99.5 km/h and 97.5 km/h for the 0 and 

90 degree sign stands, respectively. 

For the 0 degree test, the 2270P vehicle's 

front bumper impacted the vertical rnember

of the sign stand just above the base 

assembly. The upright immediately yielded 

around the front bumper as the sign 

detached from the fiberglass supports and 

draped over the bumper and hood. The 

fiberglass supports remained attached to 

the stand as it passed under the vehicle. The 

stand exited from the rear of the vehicle 

and the sign fell off the vehicle when it 

braked to a stop. For the 90 degree test, the PASS 2270P vehicle's front bumper impacted the

vertical member of the sign stand as the 

front of the hood impacted the lower 

section of the roll up sign. The upright 

immediately yielded around the front 

bumper as the sign detached from the 

fiberglass supports and draped over the 

bumper and hood momentarily and then 

quickly elevated above the vehicle. The 

stand stayed under the vehicle until the 

vehicle braked to a stop. The test vehicle 

sustained minor damage to the bumper, 

grill, and hood; there was no damage to the 

undercarriage of the test vehicle. There was 

no direct contact with the windshield. There 

was no penetration or deformation of the 

occupant compartment. The Plasticade 

SS300/SS300A was judged by E-TECH to 

have successfu lly met MASH evaluation 

criteria for Test Level 3 under the criteria for 

work zone traffic control devices. 

3-72 (2270P) 

Full Scale Crash Testing was done in compliance with MASH by the following accredited crash test 

laboratory (cite the laboratory's accreditation status as noted in the crash test reports.) :
