NOVA Line Rocker Bearings

NOVA Line Rocker Bearings are normally used on pre-cast beam bridges and are therefore normally supplied without holding down bolts. However, for in-situ structures or other special applications the following types of bolts may be specified.

Our range of structural products:

Combination pot bearings for incrementally launched bridges, linear rocking bearings, point tilt bearings, guide bearings, uplift bearings, pot bearings, pin bearings, NOVA - tie anchors, NOVA - concrete test cube moulds, NOVA - delta strip construction bearings.

NOVA Tie Anchor 
The NOVA Tie-Anchor is generally used together with conventional bridge bearings or elastomeric pads to provide uplift restraint to bridge decks. Every Tie-Anchor is custom designed for each specific application. The designer takes into account the loading and movement required as well as presets if needed. The Tie-Anchor is particularly suitable as a holding down device for decks of bridges subject to flooding and overtopping.

NOVA Structural Bearings Type SB
The type SB bearing is available in two types, multidirectional and unidirectional. They are designed for use on most types of structures, for example, ducts, pipe bridges, gantries, etc. They are designed to support vertical loads from 100kn to 3000kn under normal conditions.
