C VI 3
A laminated elastomeric bearing is an elastomeric rubber
block reinforced with steel plates vulcanised when built.
This bearing is the connection between a structure and its
support, and should make the following possible through
elastic deformation:
• transmission of normal forces;
• horizontal movements;
• rotation of the structure in any direction;
• transmission of horizontal forces, within defined limits.
It may also be provided with a sliding plane for withstanding
large movements of the structure and also having a one or
two horizontal movement locking systems.
All Freyssinet bearings are CE certified.

Behaviour
Each elemental layer, subject to stresses and movements, deflects as shown in
the three diagrams below:
Shears that occur in the elastomeric layers depend on their dimensions, stresses
and also the characteristics of the elastomer used.
Sizing of bearings is based on restricting these shears in accordance with current
national or international regulations.
Use
Banded elastomeric bearings are mainly used in the structures field for which
this product has many advantages: long service life, reliability, maintenance free,
lightness, small overall dimensions and easy to install.
These qualities are also sought in the building field where laminated elastomeric
bearings may be used for filtering vibrations (reduction of noise annoyance for
example) or even earthquake proof insulators (acceleration reduction).
Installation
Installation quality is a vital condition for efficient operation and long lasting quality.
Arrangements should be made at the design stage for providing sufficient clea-
rance around the bearings so they can be monitored and possibly replaced.

Dimensions The figures provided in this table relate to Type B and Type C bearings in accordance
with EN 1337-3. The different values shown below may be changed as a function
of the actual stresses on the bearing involved.

Standard bearings
Bearings are individually moulded and the reinforcing plates are completely buried
in the elastomer with at least 4mm lateral cover and generally 2.5mm thick (type
B) outside layers with the exception of bearings provided with thick external bands
(type C).
These bearings may have a rectangular, square or circular section. They may also
have holes for running specific materials through (cross bar anchor), for fitting
damping material or for reducing vertical stiffness.
Bearings with anchor plates
Freyssinet offers several solutions appropriate for different configurations, conside-
ring the variety of construction methods for structures and the stresses transmitted
by bearings.
Type B Type C
Bearings fitted with corruga-
ted outer plates to guarantee

Bearings fitted with outer plates,
anchor plates and connexion
devices.
Bearings fitted with outer plates,
anchor plates and shear discs.

Bearings with sliding surface
Laminated elastomeric bearings can be fitted with a sliding surface comprising a PTFE
(polytetrafluoroethylene) sheet dipped in the elastomer of the bearing or notched in
the top thick outer plate and a sliding plate provided with an austenitic steel sheet for
decks requiring significant movement. Therefore, the built up bearing only provides
very little movement resistance (limited to PTFE/ austenitic steel friction).
Restrained bearings
Transfer of large horizontal loads in either direction can be provided using
steel guides.
Freyssinet offers neoprene and natural rubber based bearings to meet different
national or international standards (BS, AASHTO, DIN, EN, etc.). Production quality
of these bearings is guaranteed by appropriate formulation, control of mix prepa-
ration and steel plate surface treatment quality, as well as by the care applied to
construction and moulding. Internal and external inspections are made at each
production stage.
Moreover, Freyssinet conducts a policy of permanently improving its products
and research and development of new processes or materials. The rigorous
product quality control practices Freyssinet has developed have enabled the
Group to obtain CE marking to distribute its elastomeric bearings.
