Rubber bearings for bridges
Natural rubber bearings which can be designed to be sufficiently soft horizontally as to impose only small horizontal forces on supports but sufficiently stiff vertically to prevent appreciable changes in height under variable load are used in several new concrete bridges in Great Britain, including those on Biggleswade bypass, Slough bypass, and Pelham bridge; types of rubber bearings, hardness and elastic modulus, compression, load deflection and shearing characteristics, fatigue, stability, tension and tilting, and creep are discussed; design example given.
