Spherical bridge bearings are constructed from steel and they feature both a flat sliding surface and a spherical sliding surface.
Similar to spherical bearings, elastic spherical bearings can withstand vertical, horizontal and tension loads and offer rotational capabilities in all directions.
High damping spherical bearings, which integrate spherical bearings with elastic elements and dampers.
Pot rubber bearings are characterized by their compact and low-profile design. They can support large vertical loads since the rubber is completely confined in the pot. Rotational movement is facilitated through the shear deformation of the rubber pad. If PTFE sliding surface is integrated, these bearings can also accommodate significant horizontal movement requirements.
Friction pendulum bearings can serve dual purposes of seismic isolation and energy dissipation. These bearings can extend the vibrational periods of the structures and mitigate the seismic impacts by converting the seismic energy into heat. They are designed to handle substantial vertical and tension loads while providing significant horizontal displacement capabilities. The bearing structures are highly durable, making them suitable for use in demanding environments.
