Laminated rubber bearing pads for bridges consist of multiple layers of rubber vulcanized and bonded with thin steel plates. They have sufficient vertical rigidity to reliably transmit the reaction forces of the superstructure to the pier. Their good elasticity accommodates the rotation of the beam ends,and they possess significant shear deformation capabilities to meet the horizontal displacement of the superstructure.
Laminated Rubber Bearing Pads
Features
Laminated rubber bearing pads are not only technically superior but are also simple in structure,cost-effective,easy to replace,provide buffering and seismic isolation,and contribute to a lower construction height. These features make them very popular in the bridge sector and they are widely used.
