Bridge Bearing Pads

elastomeric rubber bearing pad available in natural rubber and neoprene,

elastomeric bearing pads are molded or cut to size from larger slabs to provide a low-cost, single element structural bearing.

Bridge Bearing Pad

Plain elastomeric bearings are a cost effective option for applications with moderate load transfer and movement requirements. elastomeric pads accommodate surface irregularities, vertical load, and rotation through vertical deflection, while longitudinal movement is accommodated through shear deformation. These pads are suitable for use in pre-cast concrete, cast in place concrete, and steel framed structures.
