Elastomeric reinforced Bearings have many uses in both civil engineering and building applications to support either concrete or steel superstructures, where a simple, economical, effective, separation strip, capable of carrying compressive load, together with providing some translational movement and rotational capacity, is required. Applications are many and varied, but typically used under short span cast concrete slabs in bridges or pre-cast concrete plates as used in multi-level sports stadiums.
Seismic Restrainer Bearings
These Bearings are installed in Vertical Profile Between the Substructure & Superstructure Segment.
These Bearings provide resistance from Impact of Horizontal forces to the structural members.
Vertical Stopper Bearings can be of Fixed & Sliding Type.
These Bearings are installed with positive locating devices fixed with top & bottom plates vulcanized with the bearings.
Consists of a number of Elastomer Layers sandwiched between mild steel laminates as per Standard Laminated Elastomeric Bearing.
Reinforcement of Steel laminate in between elastomer layers provides Load bearing capacity especially the Horizontal forces.
