31、of applicable law.TS-4e M 251-4 AASHTO 5.2. Fabric-laminated bearings may be molded and vulcanized in large sheets and cut to size. Cutting shall be performed so as to avoid heating the materials and produce a smooth finish with no separation of the fabric from the elastomer. Fabric shall be free of

32、 folds and ripples and shall be parallel to the top and bottom surfaces. If external steel plates are required, a cold bonding process that will yield the strengths required in Section 8.8 of this specification may be used in lieu of hot bonding. 5.3. Plain pads may be molded or extruded and vulcani

33、zed in large sheets and cut to size. Cutting shall not heat the materials, and shall produce a smooth finish to ANSI B46.1, 6.3 m 248 in. Plain pads shall be molded or extruded to the finished thickness. Fabricators will not be allowed to make pads of finished thickness by plying pads of lesser thic

34、kness together. External load plates, when used, shall be protected from rusting by the manufacturer and shall be hot bonded by vulcanization during the primary molding process. 5.4. Flash tolerance, finish, and appearance of bearings shall meet the requirements of the latest edition of the Rubber H

35、andbook as published by The Association for Rubber Products Manufacturers (ARPM), RMA F3 and T .063 for molded bearings and RMA F2 for extruded bearings. 6. TOLERANCES 6.1. Plain pads and laminated bearings shall be manufactured to the design dimensions tolerances listed in Table 2, unless other tol

36、erances are shown on the design drawings. Use the following equation to define alignment tolerance limits for steel laminate when tolerance #3 (3 mm) 0.1181 in. is exceeded: 7.5 + v/hr 0.35 provided 0.02 where (radians) and v (mm) in. are absolute values of steel laminate rotation and vertical displ

37、acement. If the specified elastomeric layer thickness is hr , the bearing length is L, and H1 and H2 are the measured maximum and minimum thicknesses at the edges of the layer, then v = |hr 0.5 (H1 + H2 )| and = |(H1 H2 )/ 2L| for interior layers and = |(H1 H2 ) / L| for top and bottom layers, provi

38、ded that the minimum elastomer layer thickness H2 5 mm 0.1968 in. Bearings with tolerances that satisfy this equation must also satisfy the compression test in Section 8.8 or the inclined compression test in Annex A1. Table 2Tolerances mm in. 1.

42、 applicable law.TS-4e M 251-5 AASHTO 7. MARKING 7.1. Each elastomeric bearing shall be marked in indelible ink or flexible paint. The marking shall consist of the order number, lot number, bearing identification number, and elastomer type and grade. Unless otherwise specified in the contract documen

43、ts, the marking shall be on a face that is visible after the bridge is erected. 8. BEARING TESTING AND ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA 8.1. All test apparatus used to determine conformance with these specifications shall be calibrated annually in accordance with ASTM E4. 8.2. Sampling, testing, and acceptance c

44、onsideration will be made on a lot basis. A lot of bearings shall be considered to be a group of 100 or fewer bearings that are manufactured in a reasonably continuous manner from the same batch of elastomer, cured under the same conditions, and are all the same size and type (plain, fabric-laminate

45、d, or steel-laminated). A lot may include 100 or fewer fabric-laminated bearings of different plan size if cut from a large sheet or sheets meeting these requirements. 8.3. The manufacturer shall designate the bearings in each lot and certify that each of the bearings in the lot was manufactured in

46、a reasonably continuous manner from the same batch of elastomer, and cured under the same conditions. In addition, the manufacturer shall certify that each bearing in the lot satisfies the requirements of the design specification and meets the dimensional tolerances of Section 6 of this specificatio

47、n. 8.4. The dimensions of each bearing shall be checked. If any dimension is outside the limits listed in Section 6 of this specification, the lot shall be rejected. 8.5. The purchaser shall select sample bearings from the lot for testing in accordance with this specification. Sampling rate shall be

48、 as follows: Plain BearingsTwo full-size bearings per lot. Laminated BearingsOne full-size bearing per every ten per lot, or a minimum of two bearings. 8.6. Elastomer taken from the sampled bearings shall be tested for conformance with the requirements of Sections 4.1 through 4.1.3 of this specifica

49、tion. If the sampled elastomer fails to meet any of these requirements, the lot shall be rejected. 8.7. Tests may be performed by the manufacturer, by the purchasing agency, or by an outside independent laboratory subject to the approval of the purchaser. If testing is performed by the manufacturer or an independent laboratory, certified test results shall be pr
