RISCyclic Experimental Behavior of Nonseismic Elastomeric Bearings with Stiffened Angle Side Retainer Fuses for Quasi-Isolated Seismic Bridge Response
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Laminated elastomeric bridge bearings are commonly employed at bridges as expansion bearings to accommodate thermal displacements. In regions of low to moderate seismicity, these bearings can also be used as fusing components ...
Performance of Nonseismic PTFE Sliding Bearings When Subjected to Seismic Demands1
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Laminated elastomeric bridge bearings incorporating a flat sliding layer of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) provide service-level thermal displacement capacity to accommodate movements of a bridge superstructure in regions ...

Shear and Friction Response of Nonseismic Laminated Elastomeric Bridge Bearings Subject to Seismic Demands
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Laminated elastomeric bridge bearings are commonly used in areas with low-to-moderate seismicity, although the applications are typically intended for service-level considerations such as thermal movements of the bridge ...
Experimental Behavior of Steel Fixed Bearings and Implications for Seismic Bridge Response
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Steel fixed bearings are commonplace structural elements for transmitting loads from superstructures to substructures, and they have typically occupied a role of elastic force transfer elements within the overall scheme ...
