EPOXY BRIDGE BEARING PAD

Details are given of the Nitobear System, a high strength spray mortar bridge bearing levelling pad developed by Tercol Ltd. The system consists of a blend of silica aggregates bonded together with resin to form a totally impermeable high strength plinth which absorbs and transfers stresses imposed by the weight of the road surface and traffic on columns and abutments. /TRRL/
