ELASTOMERIC BEARINGSGRANOR ELASTOMERIC LAMINATED BEARINGSE lastomeric LAMINATED BEARINGS ( ELB s ) are made from high pu-rity elastomers which encapsulate layered internal steel reinforcing plates. Designed for use in bridge and building construction under pre-cast concrete beams, steel beam supports and other support points. They are an effective means of giving long expansive structures freedom to move inde-pendent of the supports. Structural movement is generated by many different effects including thermal expansion/contraction, long term concrete creep and shrinkage, post tensioning effects, braking loads, wind loads, foundation set-tlement, and others. Without freed up support conditions these struc-tures would build up considerable internal stresses leading to major safety issues such as structural cracking and concrete from high qual-ity natural rubber, ELASTOMERIC BEARINGS have been shown via numerous case studies to be an extremely reliable maintenance free bearing option.
Elastomeric Laminated Bearings (“ELB’s”) are made from high pu-rity elastomers which encapsulate layered internal steel reinforcing plates.
