Abstrakt: |
To guarantee the required working life for structural bearings and expansion joints, appropriate European regulations were developed. The European standard EN 1337 regulates the design of structural bearings with state-of-the-art materials. For Road Bridge Expansion Joints a European Assessment Document (EAD) has been established, based on the former European Guideline for Technical Approval ETAG 032. For new and high performance materials, a European Technical Assessment (ETA) becomes necessary. For products according to EN 1337 and the EAD’s for High Performance Structural Bearings as well as Expansion Joints distinction is made between different performance classes. In the sense of sustainable structures the level of performance is decisive. The presentation will highlight the requests for sustainable solutions of bearings and expansion joints with low maintenance and long life expectance. |
