Elastomeric Bearings: 6 (1) Design Load On Bearings

The document provides design details for 6 elastomeric bearings for a normal span bridge with a length of 10 meters. It specifies: 1) The maximum and minimum design vertical loads on each bearing are 57.70 tons and 16.40 tons respectively. 2) The required longitudinal translation is 2.5 mm. 3) The total required rotation is 0.002020 radians. 4) The maximum horizontal force per bearing is 1.68 tons.
