Title: Evaluation of low friction bearings under simulated
hanger loads : stage 1 - PART 2
Publisher: Wimpey Laboratories Ltd, 1986
Physical description: 41 leaves
Price: Unpriced
Notes - general: Abstract: It has been suggested that bending fatigue
in suspension bridge hangers could be prevented by
introducing effective low friction bearings at the
hanger sockets. The performance requirements for such
bearings have been established. A wide ranging review
of bearing types, bearing materials and lubricants
with the potential to perform satisfactorily in this
application has been carried out.
