Elastomeric bridge bearings are manufactured by vulcanizing layers of natural rubber or neoprene with steel laminates. This construction creates a robust, maintenance-free component that effectively distributes loads and accommodates structural movements, including thermal expansion, shrinkage, and creep. Key features include excellent durability, resistance to environmental factors, and the ability to allow for rotation and translation. Designed to meet international standards like AASHTO and EN, they provide a reliable and cost-effective solution for a wide range of bridges and structures.
