9750400 Structural Coating Materials Comments From

9750400 STRUCTURAL COATING MATERIALS COMMENTS FROM INTERNAL/INDUSTRY REVIEW Ananth Prasad (850) 942-1405 [email protected] Comments: (11-30-20, Internal) In review of the proposed Specification Change for 9750400, we have the following questions / concerns: Specification 975-4 now includes Aluminum Poles, Pedestals and Posts. Sections 649 and 646 are specifically addressed but not Section 715. Question #1; How will 715 pay items be covered by the 975-4 proposed specification change? Response: Section 715 has also been revised to cover the paint requirements for conventional light poles. Additional language has been added to 975 for clarity. ****************************************************************************** Scott Arnold (850) 414-4273 [email protected] Comments: (12-10-20, Internal) I think you referenced the wrong Section for the coating properties, see comments in attached file. Response: Thank you for your comment. Change made. ****************************************************************************** Frank Rea (352) 256-0456 [email protected] Comments: (12-18-21, Industry) Frank Rea, PCS, Consulex 8.0 delta E*ab units is a rather large difference. The human eye can detect a difference of 0.5 units. Also, the delta E*ab is calculated from three values: delta L*, delta a*, and delta b*. If the delta E*ab difference is influenced by any one value and not the others, the color difference can be undesirable but still meet the 8.0 delta E*ab unit difference requirement. Consulex recommends a delta E*ab difference after 5 years that does not exceed 3.0 units. Response: This additional change would be outside the scope of the current proposed changes. The 8.0 delta E value was agreed upon by FDOT and industry for painted galvanized mast arms and the same is now being applied to painted aluminum. Any change to this value (especially a reduction) would need to first be vetted by industry. Our current method of measurements takes into account the average change in color and gloss across the entire surface. This tries to account for variations that occur over the lifetime of being erected on or near a roadway. These events include handling damage, pedestrian impacts, graffiti, and relative position to the sun. ****************************************************************************** .

To Delta-Based Bidirectional Model Transformations: the Symmetric Case
From State- to Delta-based Bidirectional Model Transformations: the Symmetric Case Zinovy Diskin1, Yingfei Xiong1, Krzysztof Czarnecki1, Hartmut Ehrig2, Frank Hermann2;3, and Fernando Orejas4 1 Generative Software Development Lab, University of Waterloo, Canada fzdiskin,yingfei,[email protected] 2 Institut fürSoftwaretechnik und Theoretische Informatik, Technische UniversitätBerlin, Germany, [email protected] 3 Interdisciplinary Center for Security, Reliability and Trust, Universitédu Luxembourg, [email protected] 4 Departament de Llenguatges i Sistemes Informàtics, Universitat Politècnicade Catalunya, Barcelona, Spain, [email protected] Abstract. A bidirectional transformation (BX) keeps a pair of interre- lated models synchronized. Symmetric BX are those for which neither model in the pair fully determines the other. We build two algebraic frameworks for symmetric BXs, with one correctly implementing the other, and both being delta-based generalizations of known state-based frameworks. We identify two new algebraic laws|weak undoability and weak invertibility, which capture important semantics of BX and are use- ful for both state- and delta-based settings. Our approach also provides a flexible tool architecture adaptable to different user's needs. 1 Introduction Keeping a system of models mutually consistent (model synchronization) is vital for model-driven engineering. In a typical scenario, given a pair of inter-related models, changes in either of them are to be propagated to the other to restore consistency. This setting is often referred to as bidirectional model transforma- tion (BX) [3]. As noted by Stevens [15], despite early availability of several BX tools on the market, they did not gain much user appreciation because of semantic issues.

COLOR PERCEPTION Things Required To See Color A Light Source An Object An Observer Visual Observing Situation LIGHT SOURCE OBSERVER OBJECT Visual Observing Situation The visual observing model shows the three items necessary to perceive color. To build an instrument that can quantify human color perception, each item in the visual observing situation must be represented as a table of numbers. Light Source Light Source A light source emits white light. When light is dispersed by a prism, all visible wavelengths can be seen. Sunlight Spectrum Light Source Visible light is a small part of the electromagnetic spectrum. The wavelength of light is measured in nanometers (nm). The CIE wavelength range of the visible spectrum is from 360 to 780 nm. A plot of the relative energy of light at each wavelength creates a spectral power distribution curve quantifying the characteristics of the light source.

Innovation in the Analysis of Weathering-Induced Color
Material Testing Product and Technology News Volume 40 ® Issue 86 SunSpots Spring 2010 Innovation in the Analysis of Weathering-Induced Color Changes in Plastics Atlas collaborates with Underwriters Laboratories By Thomas Kilian, Dr. Kurt Engelsing, Dr. Peter Heidemeyer, to advance testing for and Dr. Martin Bastian, Süddeutsches Kunststoff-Zentrum (SKZ), solar industry. Würzburg, Germany Page 13 Abstract Developing formulations for colored plastic products often requires color stability tests involving lengthy outdoor weathering. Currently, the only method for reducing this outdoor weathering time is accelerated artificial weathering. With the goal of saving even more time, a new color measurement system (Catscope, ERT- Optik GmbH) was investigated in this research project. The Catscope was developed for investigating weathering- In This Issue induced color changes in paint systems. With paint samples, color changes can be accurately measured after a short exposure time and then extrapolated for longer weathering times. The purpose 11 of this study was to investigate the suitability of Catscope for the measurement of weathering-induced color changes in plastics. After Affordable SEPAP Serves verifying the reproducibility of Catscope measurements for plastics, Multiple Industries the results were correlated with a conventional spectrophotometer measurement. In addition, some new extrapolation functions were tested in order to adjust the prediction for plastic parts. 11 Experimental New Xenotest® 220/220+ Sample Preparation Unveiled To investigate weathering-induced color changes in colored plastics, test plates were produced by injection molding using a Battenfeld TM 1300/525+130 machine with a two-cavity mold for 12 test plates with different surface structures (polished, brushed Atlas’ Launches Program to finish and two different spark erosion structures).
