Condition assessment of in situ elastomeric bearings

IABSE Congress Reports, 2021
<p>Elastomeric bearings used as seismic isolation devices are key elements in the protection of constructions against earthquakes. They enable structures to exhibit very high performances when subject to extreme events, preventing damage both to structural and non-structural components.

Stability of Elastomeric Seismic Isolation Bearings

Journal of Structural Engineering, 1999
Elastomeric seismic isolation bearings are subjected to large axial loads and lateral displacements during strong earthquakes. The existing Koh-Kelly model (1986, 1988, 1989) for elastomeric bearings accounts for axial load effects on horizontal stiffness.

High-Load Elastomeric Bridge Bearings

Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 1996
The use of elastomeric bearings as high-load bridge bearings for steel and concrete bridges is discussed. The Washington State Department of Transportation's (WSDOT's) experience with high-load multirotational bearings and search for simpler, more durable, and more economical high-load bridge bearings are described.

Fatigue of Steel‐Reinforced Elastomeric Bearings

Journal of Structural Engineering, 1990
Fatigue is an important design criterion for elastomeric bearings, but it is not well understood. This paper examines the design methods currently in use for controlling fatigue. Twenty‐six fatigue tests were performed to evaluate the design methods, and the results are described here. The bearings were tested in cyclic shear or compression.

Tensile load‐carrying behaviour of elastomeric bearings

Steel Construction, 2015
AbstractElastomeric bearings for seismic isolation applications can be subjected to tensile loads depending on the geometrical configuration, high vertical seismic motion or excessive horizontal deformation due to the elongated‐period horizontal motion.

Stability of Elastomeric Isolation Bearings: Experimental Study

Journal of Structural Engineering, 2002
Elastomeric isolation bearings are required to be stable at high shear strains, which occur during strong earthquakes. Hence, rigorous determination of the critical axial load during design is important. Currently, the critical load is determined using the small displacement Haringx theory and modified to account for large shear strains by an ...
