Elastomeric bearing with steel plates is also a type of reinforced bridge bearing with external steel plates vulcanized directly onto the surface of the bearing to provide specialized mounting and anchoring systems. They can be fixed to the structure by various mechanical methods to reduce the risk of slippage. For example, shaping or drilling holes for anchor bars or utilizing steel plates with pins is the most common way of fastening.
Normally, they are ideal for in situ cast concrete structure, metal structures as well as anti-lift devices. The elastomeric bearing with steel plates is capable to absorb daily movements. Meanwhile, it allows for horizontal sliding movements to accommodate those shear or less frequent movements.
In addition, all steel components exposed to the air are protected against corrosion and rust in accordance with your local environments as your requirements.
