The guide pro-vides a general overview of lighting systems from the point of view of the transportation depar

The guide incorporates the illuminance and luminance designmethods, but does not include the small target visibility (STV) method.Two appendices to this document are located online for reference purposes at http:/downloads.trans-portation.org/lighting.

Appendix A is entitled Literature Review and References, and contains infor-mation on research studies related to accidents and highway lighting, driver parameters, pavementparameters, and a summary of further references. Appendix B contains an overview of Lighting Basics,including background i
48、nformation on the various issues related to effective highway lighting.Need for Engineering ExpertiseMost states require that final design documents be signed and sealed by a registered professional engi-neer. The registrant is normally required to only sign and seal documents that the registrant pr
49、epared, ordocuments for which the registrant was responsible for the direction and control of the work. Documentsinclude specifications, reports, drawings, plans, design information, and calculations. Lighting designs,as described in this guide, meet the criteria for requirement of an engineering seal. This is necessarybecause the public interest is at stake. In addition, the designs integrated with other aspects of the trans-portation facility that have engineering features. These other aspects include support structures, break-away devices, pavement character
