BRIDGE BEARING TESTING
Neoprene Bearing Pads,neoprene bridge bearings, laminated
elastomeric bearings,seismic isolators etc are generally known as
bridge bearing pads in Construction industry and we at www.pretread.com
manufacture them in our purpose built plant using high-grade virgin Neoprene -
Polychloroprene Grade- 2 into a rubber compound to match AASHTO M
251 Specification under controlled heat and pressure.
Manufacturing of laminated bearings are done by many a rubber moulding companies around the world
but.... how do you evaluate that these bearings will confirm with Vertical Load
and lateral shear capabilities as specified by designer?. The only way
is to test these bearings under real time load to ascertain
deflection on vertical load and subject to tests to evaluate stress strain relation ship under
lateral shear under your own eyes.
Testes to be carried out for conformity of acceptance on Laminated bearings.
Acceptance Testing AASHTO Level I or Level II
Stiffness in Compression- Vertical Deflection under Load
Stiffness in Shear-Stress Strain Relation ship under Vertical load & Lateral Shear.
The first testing facility in Middle East.
We are the only factory in Middle East and one among very few in
world to have facility to carry out all these tests in house. Tests for Stiffness in Compression
and Stiffness in Shear are carried out on our specially designed dedicated machine which can apply
a vertical load up 4200 kN and apply a horizontal shear load up to 400kN and simultaneously movement up to
100 mm. Results are collected through high sensitive electronic sensors / load cells
computed through software and reproduced as a plotted graph.
Following pictures shows testing being carried out on a
lamainted Bridge Bearing of size 400x200x52 mm manufactured by
us.

Bearing Load Testing.
We are the first and only laminated bearing manufacturing
facility in Middle East to have an in-house bearing testing
facility to carry out tests confirming to AASHTO
specification in accordance with Acceptance Testing on either
Level I or Level II as well as Short/Long-Duration Compression
Test. Our bearing testing machine can test bearings to Vertical load of 4200
kN with horizontal shear load up to 400kN and movement to 100
mm.
