Description of PTFE laminated elastomeric bridge bearings
PTFE laminated elastomeric bridge bearinggenerally consists or interleaving layers of rubber bonded sandwich fashion to steel plates. The whole
unit is covered with rubber to afford weather protection.A bridge basically consists of bridge deck supported by
piers. In order to avoid over stressing and damage by movements of vehicle and loading to the piers, Elastomeric
laminated bridge bearings are used to accommodate these movements so as to reduce the reaction forces and
bending movement to within the safety limits of structure. Natural Rubber is an ideal engineering material for
bridge bearings as it is highly elastic and sufficiently soft to accommodate these movements without transmitting
harmful stress and also it can absorb and isolate energies from impacts and vibrations.
Tetrafluoro PTFE laminated elastomeric bridge bearing not only has fine technical performances, but also has
simple structure, low price, no maintenance, easy to change, buffering and shock is isolating, low building height, and
other characteristics. Therefore, rubber bridge bearing is welcomed and widely used in bridges.
Aplication of
2. Tetrafluoro PTFE laminated elastomeric bridge bearings suits to bridges with large span, several spans in continuous, with simply supported beam and continuous plates strutures, and large displacement. It can still be used as the sliding block in pushing of continuous beam and cross sliding of T-shaped beam. The application of rectangular and circular tetrafloro Elastomeric Laminated Bearings are the same with rectangular and circular general Bridge Bearing ,separately.

The operating principle of PTFE laminated elastomeric bridge bearings
The main function of Neoprene bridge bearing is reliably transfer the counterforce on the upper structures to pier platform, and meet the need deformation of beam body ( horizontal displacement and rotation). It has sufficient vertical rigidity so that can guarantee the lesser deformation of bearing in the effect of maximum vertical load. It has fine elasticity at horizontal direction, and can adapt the horizontal displacement due to the effects of braking force, temperature, contraction of concrete, creep and load, and at the same time, it can adapt the rotation of beam end.
