9、signed in accordance with specifications contained in the latest edition of AASHTOs Standard Specifications for Highway Bridges or the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications. 3.2. The dimensions of the furnished bearings shall be the dimensions required by the design documents within the tolerance

10、s shown in Section 6 of this specification. The bearings shall be composed of the specified materials; shall be tested at the appropriate level; and shall satisfy any special requirements of the purchaser. 3.3. The contractor shall provide the purchaser with written notifications 30 days prior to th

11、e start of bearing production. This notification shall include the contract number, quantity, and size of bearings being produced; manufacturers name, location, and the representative who will coordinate production, inspection, sampling, and testing with the purchaser. 3.4. In addition to material r

12、equirements for the bearings individual components, this specification provides acceptance criteria for finished bearings. 3.5. Perform calculations using significant digits in accordance with ASTM E29 using the rounding method for determining compliance to the specification requirements herein, unl

13、ess otherwise specified by the purchaser. 4. MATERIALS 4.1. Properties of Cotton Duck FabricFabric shall be cotton or cotton-polyester 50-50 blend, and weigh a minimum of 8 oz. per square yard. The fabric warp count shall be 50 1 threads per in. and the fill count shall be 40 2 threads per in. 4.2.

14、Properties of RubberRubber shall be high quality natural rubber or equivalent material. 4.3. Properties of Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)PTFE shall be made from resin satisfying the requirements of ASTM D4894 or D4895. 4.4. Properties of Preformed PadPreformed pads shall be manufactured of new mater

15、ials and composed of multiple layers of cotton duck fabric impregnated and bound with a rubber compound containing rot and mildew inhibitors and antioxidants. The number of plies shall be such as to produce the specified thickness, after compression and vulcanizing. 4.4.1. The pads shall withstand c

16、ompressive loads perpendicular to the plane of the laminations of not less than 10,000 lb per square in. without detrimental extrusion or reduction in thickness. Load deflection properties shall be in accordance with procedures of Military Specifications MIL-C-882E. 4.4.2. The rubber shall have a Ty

17、pe A Durometer hardness of 87 to 95 according to ASTM D2240. 4.4.3. The material shall not lose effectiveness throughout a temperature range of 65F to 150F. 4.4.4. There shall be no visible evidence of damage or deterioration resulting from environmental effects of sunshine, humidity, salt spray, fu

18、ngus, or dust in accordance with MIL-E-5272. 4.5. Properties of Mating SurfaceMating surfaces shall be stainless steel, Type 304, conforming to ASTM A240/A240M or A264. The mating surface shall have a surface finish of 8.0 -in. RMS or better. 2015 by the American Association of State Highway and Tra

Any adhesive used to attach the cotton duck fabric pad shall be recommended for that purpose by the manufacturer and approved

20、by the purchaser. 5.2. Sliding Expansion Cotton Duck Fabric Bearings: 5.2.1. Any adhesive used to attach the PTFE to the cotton duck fabric pad shall be recommended for that purpose by the manufacturer of the PTFE sliding material and approved by the purchaser. 5.2.2. The stainless steel mating surf

21、ace shall be attached to the sole plate by either bonding or welding. 5.2.2.1. For bonded applications, stainless steel sheets may be affixed to sole plates with a combination of high-temperature resistant epoxy or other approved procedure. The fabricator must demonstrate that any proposed alternate

22、 procedure for attachment will maintain adhesion between the sole plate and stainless steel under loading, movement, and weather conditions anticipated to be encountered during the life of the bearing. 5.2.2.2. For welded applications, stainless steel sheets may be affixed to sole plates using eithe

23、r flux-cored arc welding (FCAW), gas metal arc welding (GMAW), or gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW). Care should be taken when selecting the filler metal. Filler metals with high levels of chromium and nickel will result in martensite. The resulting martensite will be very hard and brittle. Even a sma

24、ll amount of plastic deformation will produce cracking in the weld. The cracking could occur even without external loading or deformation, due to the action of diffusible hydrogen after welding. 5.2.3. Prior to adhesion or attachment of the stainless steel to a sole plate, the contact surface of the

25、 sole plate shall be blast cleaned to an appearance equivalent to SSPC SP 10/NACE No. 2. The contact surface of stainless steel sheets to be bonded with epoxy shall be mechanically abraded or etched prior to application of adhesive. 6. TOLERANCES 6.1. Cotton duck fabric bearing pads shall be built t

26、o the design dimensions with the following tolerances: 6.1.1. Overall Vertical Dimensions: 6.1.1.1. Design thickness 11/4in. and less 0, +1/8tolerance, in. 6.1.1.2.
