900. SCOPE
901. DEFINITIONS
For the purpose of this Code, the following definitions shall apply:
901.1. Bearings
The part of the bridge structure which bears directly all the forces
from the structure above and transmits the same to the supporting structure.
2
IRC:83 (Part I)- 1999
IRC:83 (Part I)- 1999
A
type of bearing where, in addition to the sliding movement,
either the top Orbottom plate is provided with suitable curvature to permit
rotation. 'Sliding-cum-Rocker' bearing should conform to General Design
Features.
A plate which is positioned between the top plate and the roller(s).
901.8. Roller
901.11. Knuckle
A recess in the surface of the bottom/saddle plate or top plate
housing a knuckle pin preventing relative movement between two plates
without restricting rotational movement.
4
IRC.83 (Part I)- 1999
5
IRC:83(Part I)- 1999
6
IRC:83 (Part I)- 1999
A lug on the surface of the bottom plate or saddle plate which fits
into corresponding clear recess made in the top plate to prevent relative
movement of the two plates without restricting rotational movement,
Fig. 3.
901.13. Guide
901.14. Stopper
A rag bolt or ordinary bolt anchoring the top and bottom plates to
the structure.

907.1. General
i) For plates with rocking line of contact the width shall be the
available dispersed width (max. dispersion being limited to 2
horizontal to one vertical).
and
ii ) For plates with rolling lines of contact the width for any particular
position shall be the ce. tre to centre distance of outermost rollers
plus the available dispersed width beyond the outermost lines of
contact (max. dispersion being limited to 2 horizontal to one
vertical).
13
IRC:83 (Part I)- 1999
907.2. 1.2. The width of plates shall not be less than either of the
following :
i) 100 mm
or
907.2. 1 .3. The thickness of the plate shall not be less than (i) 20
mm or (ii) l/4th the distance between consecutive lines of contact,
whichever is higher.
907.2. .4. The thickness of the plate shall also be checked, based
1
on the contact stresses arrived at accounting for the actual width of the plate
provided, to satisfy the requirements of structural design and permissible
stresses as laid down in Clause 906.
907.2.2. Rollers
907.2.2.4. The gap between the rollers shall not be less than 5C
mm in case of multiple rollers.
