COMPLETE RANGE OF STRUCTURAL BEARINGS FOR


BRIDGES AND OTHER CIVIL ENGINEERING PROJECTS
All structures are flexible, and their structural integrity must be maintained under
all conditions. A structural bearing is essential to providing free movement between
the superstructure and the supporting structure while ensuring the safe transfer of
vertical loads and rotations.

SPHERICAL BEARINGS
Goodco Z-Tech spherical bearings consist of an assembly of precision-machined
steel components with spherical concave and convex elements in its center.
Designed and sized according to the specific requirements of your project, these
bearings transfer large vertical loads while accommodating the structure’s
relative movement. Whether they are fixed, unidirectional or multidirectional,
spherical bearings transfer vertical and horizontal load combinations as well as
longitudinal and transverse movements. They can also be equipped with an uplift

restraint device.

Rotational movement of the


superstructure is accommodated
by the displacement of the top convex
plate sliding on the bottom concave
plate. The bearing uses the principle
Concave plate of a ball-and-socket joint, which
allows rotation in any direction
with minimum resistance.

Figure 1 Cross-section of a spherical bearing

DESIGN PRINCIPLE
The design principle of the spherical bearing is that of a fixed bearing that allows
rotation in any direction, the characteristic feature being that rotational movements
of the bridge superstructure about any axis (point-type tilting) are transformed into
sliding movements between the convex and concave plates of the bearing.
The bottom component is a regular steel plate with a spherically concave top face.
This concave face is covered with a recessed PTFE sheet. The top component is a
solid anodized aluminum or stainless steel plate with a spherically machined convex
bottom face.
When sliding components are added, the fixed bearing becomes a mobile bearing
that can accommodate horizontal movement. This horizontal movement can be
multidirectional or unidirectional if a guiding system is provided. These sliding
components consist of a polished stainless steel sheet welded to the underside
of a steel plate and a PTFE disc bonded to the upper surface of the convex plate.
In order to increase its load-bearing capacity, the PTFE disc is recessed into the steel
to a depth equal to approximately one-half of its thickness. The PTFE disc has small
cavities (lubrication dimples) that contain a special lubricant to ensure permanent
lubrication of the sliding surfaces.

Note:
The unit can be inverted without impairing the design principle, depending on the designer’s preference.

APPLICATIONS
Goodco Z-Tech spherical bearings can be used for bridges, railway and highway
overpasses or buildings where design or installation require high rotational capacity.

Goodco Z-Tech manufactured 78 SM Series multidirectional spherical


bearings and 78 SMG Series unidirectional self-lubricating bronze
spherical bearings for the T14 – CP Keewatin railway bridge crossing
the Red River in Winnipeg, Manitoba.

PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene/Teflon®)
The PTFE discs are manufactured from pure unfilled sheets, and the PTFE used for
the guide bars can be 15% filled with glass fibers. All PTFE materials are chemically
etched on one face in order to improve bonding.

350W or ASTM F1554, Grade 105 (ASTM A193 B7). The connecting bolts conform
to ASTM A325.
Steel finish
The exposed steel surfaces are zinc-metalized to a minimum thickness of
175 microns, in compliance with CSA G189 (AWS C2.23M/C2.23). It is recommended
that a polyurethane-based primer-sealer be used over the zinc-metalized surfaces.
Epoxy or vinyl coating systems can also be used. The connection bolts and certain
plates are hot-dipped galvanized, in compliance with CSA G164 (ASTM A123).

PTFE guide strips: Recessed PTFE guide strips are designed for a maximum pressure

Horizontal load capacity: Standard guiding and anchorage systems are designed for a
minimum horizontal load equal to 10% of the bearing’s total vertical load capacity when
this capacity does not exceed 5000 kN. A lower ratio is used for greater load capacities.
Stability constraint: Horizontal load capacity of standard spherical bearings is
limited to 25% of the concurrent vertical load under any load combinations, but
special designs can accommodate higher horizontal loads.
Rotation: Standard bearings are designed for a minimum service rotation of 0.04
radian (SLS), but certain special designs can accommodate a maximum rotation of
up to 0.06 radian.
Concrete stress: Standard base plates are designed for a maximum pressure
of 17 MPa (SLS) and 24 MPa (ULS) on concrete.
Movement: Standard bearings are designed for a minimum movement capacity
of ± 25 mm. Additional movement of the structure must be added to the dimensions
of the sliding plate.

Installation, Handling and Storage

Goodco Z-Tech spherical bearings are manufactured to close tolerances by skilled


technicians. To obtain optimum bearing performance, it is important to handle them
properly on the job site and to install them as carefully as they were assembled in
the manufacturing plant. The following information is intended for designers and
those who supervise the installation of bearings.

TEMPORARY PLATES FOR TRANSPORTATION


Temporary transportation plates or brackets are installed on all bearings in order
to ensure that the sliding or working surfaces are kept parallel and in close contact
during transportation and installation. These plates are generally painted a different
color from that of the bearings. Unless special temporary transportation plates are Bearings must not be disassembled
specified, they must not, under any circumstances, be used to handle the bearings on the job site, except with the prior
or to retain or stabilize the structure while work is in progress. These plates should approval of Goodco Z-Tech and the

has been approved by the design engineer.
Since unforeseeable conditions may occur during transportation and handling,
it is important to verify that the alignment and preset temperature (if applicable)
of the assembly are as specified on the shop drawings. Any bearing-related
problems that arise must not be corrected on the job site. Please contact our
Engineering Department.

to be very costly. Given the loading effect of a wet concrete mass, the upper sub-assembly should
be supported in order to prevent rotation and distortion of the plate. Upper
sub-assemblies with stainless steel sliding on PTFE are especially vulnerable in this
regard.

PResetting
If presetting of the bearings is required due to certain field operations that can
cause large movements, it should be specified as a requirement, and should only
be carried out in our manufacturing plant prior to shipping.

FIELD WELD
If the bearings must be subjected to field welding operations, particular care
must be taken to protect them against sparks and burrs. Welding should also be
controlled in order to prevent excessive heat transfer to the elastomeric pad and
PTFE components. Only welding procedures approved by the competent authorities
must be performed.

BEARING REMOVABILITY
Where possible, bearings must be designed to be removable. Standard Goodco
Z-Tech spherical bearings are removable. However, this feature should be included
in the contract specifications.

BEARING IDENTIFICATION
Black markings are used to identify each bearing. The arrow painted on the sole
plate indicates the longitudinal direction of the bearing. If necessary, a typical layout
plan can be included with the shop drawings to enable the contractor to identify
the exact location of each bearing.
