Structural Bearings - Part 5: Pot Bearings
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 1337-5 standard focuses on the design and manufacturing requirements for pot bearings with elastomeric pads. These bearings have a maximum diameter of 1500 mm and are intended for use in operating temperatures ranging from -25 °C to 50 °C.
However, it is important to note that this standard does not cover bearings that are subjected to tensile loads or rotations greater than 0.045 rads. Such bearings fall outside the scope of this European Standard. For the accommodation of translational movements of structural elements, reference should be made to EN 1337-2.
The purpose of this standard is to ensure the reliable and safe use of pot bearings in various structural applications. By laying out specific requirements for design and manufacture, the standard aims to promote quality and consistency in the performance of pot bearings. This helps ensure that these bearings can effectively support and facilitate the necessary movements of structural elements while maintaining structural integrity.
