Spray Applied Membrane

Tue, 05 Feb 2008 14:42:59 -0500

BDM Bridge Membrane is a cold spray applied waterproofing membrane for use on railway bridge decks, piers and abutments. The system provides protection from corrosion and freeze-thaw damage in all climates and conditions found in North America. This seamless, highly flexible joint system assures a complete watertight system for bridge decks and has been independently tested and certified to exceed AREMA Chapter 29, Section 2.3.10.

FRP Composites

Bridge Expansion Joints

Tue, 05 Feb 2008 14:42:01 -0500

Silicoflex Bridge Deck Joint Sealing System is a preformed silicone bridge expanion joint that is bonded to concrete, elastomeric concrete, polymer concrete and steel joint interfaces. It is a long term solution to the ever present problem of sealing deck joints on highway bridges, parking structures, railroad bridges and other structures experiencing thermal displacements.

Poly-Tron Elastomeric Concrete is an easy to mix, three component, modified polyurethane elastomeric concrete. Poly-Tron is used primarily as an expansion joint edge material. It has excellent adhesion to various substrates, is flexible yet tough and provides excellent impact resistance. Poly-Tron is resistant to U.V. and ozone exposure and resists freeze-thaw changes.

Tronflex Elastomeric Concrete is used primarily as an expansion joint edge material, a flexible nosing material for metallic expansion joint assemblies, and a patching compound for spalls in concrete deck surfaces.

UraTron Sealant is a two component, self leveling, fast curing, urethane sealant for use in deck joint sealing.

ZED Seal is an enhanced co-polymer foam designed to give greater resilience and higher tensile and tear performance. The seal is bonded into place with a high stength single component adhesive. ZED Seal will permanently bond to concrete, steel or elastomeric concrete joint surfaces.

ETIC Expansion Joints are available in Aluminum Saw-Tooth design 110 and 160 mm movement capabilities and in Steel Finger Joint design from 100 to 500 mm capacities in 50 mm increments or to custom requirements.

Disk Bearings

Tue, 05 Feb 2008 14:41:35 -0500

Disktron Multirotational Disk Bearings

The Disktron Bridge Bearing is a highload multirotational compact disc bearing which accommodates design loads of 10 to 10,000 kips while providing rotational capabilities in both longitudinal and transverse directions. Thousands of RJ Watson bridge bearings have been tested and installed worldwide.

EQS Sliding Isolation Disk Bearings

R.J. Watson's Seismic Bridge Bearings feature The EradiQuake System (EQS) which is a state of the art seismic isolation disc bearing system designed to minimize forces and displacements experienced by structures during an earthquake.

Spherical Bearings

RJW Spherical Bridge Bearings are used to accommodate thermal, seismic and mechanical expansion and contraction and also provide multidirectional rotation for highway bridges, railway bridges and other civil engineering structures.
