ABSTRACT:
A seismic isolation bearing for bridges, buildings and machines with steel reinforced rubber body and external or internal tapered steel pin uniform yielders. The pins are fixed to load plates and intersect in mid plate or in the bearing body. External pins may be threaded ended to be used with nuts and other hardware as temporary press for assembly. Also as temporary ties for handling before installation or as anchorbolts. Vertical bearing stiffness is greatly controlled by the size of a central hole, passing vertically through the bearing.
