Thanks for your response.
I had been doing basically what you explained, but I wasn't sure if there was a more accurate way to design the signs.
When you solve for the reactions at the supports of the sign beams, the wind pressure behind the sign case governs over the other one. That's why I...
I am trying to calculate the shear and tension forces caused by the dead load and wind load acting on a bridge mounted sign.
I already calculated the wind force acting into the face of the sign, where tributary area is the total area of the face, and point of application located middle point of...
