Reducing Fatigue in Wind-Excited Traffic Signal Support Structures using Smart Damping Technologies
This IDEA product focuses on developing an effective, simple and inexpensive vibration absorber for the widely used cantilever signal support structures that are highly susceptible to wind induced excitation due to inherent low damping. As a solution a signal head vibration absorber (SHVA) is proposed where the signal head hanging from the cantilever mast arm will act as a tuned mass damper. This requires no additional mass to be added to the structure thus providing an easy and simple solution to add damping to the mast arm for either new construction or as a retrofit.
