Lead Rubber bearing

composition
  • Conducting vertical force transmission and rotation functions through laminated rubber pads with lead plugs inserted, firing behavior of lead plugs during earthquakes
  • Accepts horizontal displacement through shear deformation of laminated rubber
  • Main Material: Rubber + Lead (Lead)
overview
  • It yields easily against temperature loads, which are classified as long-term loads, and transmits a small horizontal force due to temperature loads on the bridge top plate to the piers. Exhibits great rigidity and suppresses displacement.
  • As for the seismic load, the lead completely yields, increases the natural period of the structure, reduces the magnitude of the seismic force, absorbs the vibration energy of the bridge top plate into the nonlinear behavior of the lead, and suppresses the vibration of the bridge top plate. Suppress.

Issues when applying the monolithic LRB base
  • Rubber-based struts are struts that undergo shear deformation due to constant temperature and earthquake displacement.
  • When applied, it occurs when the size of the support must be designed to be large due to the stability against buckling of the rubber and the allowable acupressure area.
Slide LRB
  • There is no shear deformation in the drawing direction, and displacement is accepted on the sliding surface.
  • For the transverse direction, the LRB base is designed to undergo shear deformation.
