Vision-Based Quality Control Testing of Elastomeric Bridge Bearings
Abstract
Elastomeric bridge bearings are widely used in bridges in order to allow deformations caused by temperature variations, traffic loading, shrinkage due to prestress or aging, and construction misalignments. However, manufacturing imperfections in these bearings (such as deviations in rubber layer thickness and non-parallel steel plates) affect their structural performance. Currently, quality control of these bearings involves destructive …
