Standard Design Limits Coefficient of friction : 0.06 to 0.07 Movement capacity : Up to +/- 50 mm. Larger movements can be custom designed if required. Vertical load Capacity : 200 KN/m to 500 KN/m. (As shown in the Table 1 below). Each of the types shown in Table 1 can be provided in a variety of overall widths and movement capabilities.
Installation Method Statement a) Prepare the corbel seating area with a smooth level mortar finish so that the slip joint bearing can be placed within a plane variation of less than 3 mm along its length. Place the slip joint bearing in position with 1 meter standard piece butting with the next piece. The connection butt joint has to be masked tightly with adhesive tape so that they are easily move prematurely during concreting or launching of precast slabs. Make sure that the corbel seating area is completely covered with slip joint bearing and polystyrene so that there is no chance of concrete shorting out during the pour. Care must be taken not to damaged the slip joint bearing during steel reinforcement tying and direct blows with shovels and vibrators during concreting.
