GM1 ADR-DSN.Q.845 Marking of fixed objects

(a)Orange and white or alternatively red and white are preferably used, except where such colours merge with the background.

(b)Table Q-4 shows a formula for determining band widths, and for having an odd number of bands, thus permitting both the top and bottom bands to be of the darker colour.

(c)Against some backgrounds it may be found necessary to use a different colour from orange or red to obtain sufficient contrast.

(d)Alternative spacing may be suitable; priority is to highlight the location and definition of the object.
