Specialized Movement Accommodation

The Free Float Pot Bearing is engineered to tolerate horizontal displacements and rotational demands of modern structures. Its customisable bore sizes and profiles ensure alignment with project-specific requirements, facilitating efficient load transfer and minimising stress within superstructures.

Durable and Corrosion-Protected Design

Longevity is at the forefront, with all pot bearings finished in galvanized or painted coating to withstand harsh environments and resist corrosion. Combined with robust mild steel construction and a high-strength steel retainer, this bearing promises reliable service in demanding applications.

Compliance and Versatility

Developed as per global standards like IRC, BS EN 1337-5, and AASHTO, this pot bearing is suitable for diverse civil engineering projects. Its adaptable form factoravailable in round or rectangular configurationscaters to varying site needs, facilitating use in bridges, flyovers, and heavy-duty superstructures throughout India.

FAQs of Free Float Pot Bearing:

Q: How is a Free Float Pot Bearing installed in civil engineering structures?

A: Free Float Pot Bearings are installed at the horizontal base alignment of the superstructure, typically during bridge or flyover construction. Their custom dimensions ensure a precise fit and proper load distribution, with installation overseen according to engineering design standards.

Q: What benefits do Free Float Pot Bearings provide in bridge and flyover construction?

A: These bearings efficiently accommodate both high compression loads and specified horizontal displacements, allowing structures to manage movements caused by traffic and temperature fluctuations. This leads to improved structural durability and reduced maintenance demands.

Q: When should periodic inspection or maintenance be conducted on these bearings?

A: Periodic inspections are recommended as part of routine structural checksgenerally during scheduled maintenance of bridges and flyovers. Though designed for minimal maintenance, inspections help verify seal integrity, lubrication condition, and overall performance.

Q: Where is the optimal placement of Free Float Pot Bearings within a structure?

A: The bearings are positioned at the base of the superstructure, directly below deck beams or girders, aligned horizontally to support axial loads and accommodate movements as dictated by structural design.

Q: What is the process for selecting the appropriate size and shape of a Free Float Pot Bearing?

A: Selection is based on project-specific parameters such as load capacity, movement requirement, and installation space. The design can incorporate single-row configurations, custom bore sizes, and choose between round or rectangular forms to suit on-site conditions and structural requirements.

Q: Which standards do Free Float Pot Bearings conform to, and why is this important?

A: These bearings conform to IRC, BS EN 1337-5, and AASHTO standards, ensuring high performance, safety, and compatibility in large civil engineering projects both in India and internationally.

Q: What types of corrosion protection are available for the bearing surfaces?

A: The pot bearings are offered with either galvanized or painted finishes, safeguarding against rust and environmental degradation to enhance product longevity and reliability in exposed outdoor installations.
