A Study on the Optimization for Application of Elastomeric Bearing for Railway Bridge

The railway bridge of the domestic still has been used steel base such as sperical bearing and pot bearing widely. However, the bearing of steel series is occured corrosion frequently, reduced durability and raised maintenance cost excessively due to the nature of the material. If the elastomeric bearing which is widely used in highway bridge is applied to the railway bridge, it will be able to compensate this defect a lot. In order to apply to the railway bridge used for highway bridge, is needed the control of the bridge ends deflection, lateral displacement and negative reaction. Therefore, the elastomeric bearing can be applied to the railway bridge enough, if installed negative reaction key for control of the bridge ends deflection, improved shear wedge performance for control of the lateral force, adjust the thickness of the elastomeric pad for the minimize deflection, in addition, can be economic design of sub-structures due to damping effect.
