TICO Structural Bearings for Architectural systems

TICO Structural Bearings for Architectural systems

Our TICO Structural Bearings products have a long history of success in attenuating the transmission of ground borne vibration into buildings and other structures where vibration poses a problem.
This sophisticated range of products is divided into three categories, each with its own individual features that can be tailored to the needs of the customer.

These categories are: TICO Structural Bearings
TICO Resilient Seatings
TICO Bondslip Sliding Bearings
 

TICO STRUCTURAL BEARINGS

TICO Structural Bearings provide a maintenance free resilient barrier for the isolation of structures from ground borne noise and vibration.

Key Advantages

WB01372_.gif (406 bytes)   Supplied in virtually any size to suit specific conditions, so that the bearings can be engineered to give the required response.
WB01372_.gif (406 bytes) Can be supplied in a variety of construction methods from modular bearings  on pile caps to continuous bearings in strip footings.
WB01372_.gif (406 bytes) Bearings can be fitted above or below ground level to suit the engineers'' requirements.
WB01372_.gif (406 bytes) Available in a number of grades
WB01372_.gif (406 bytes) Suitable for a wide variety of applications from large buildings to light internal structures
WB01372_.gif (406 bytes) All bearings manufactured from high quality constituents. Top


TICO CV/CA High Stress Bearings

Vulcanised laminates of polychloroprene based rubber, enhanced by the inclusion of cellular particles and alternated with reinforcing plies of high tensile fabric.

CV/CA bearings have a working stress range of 4.5 MN/mē to 7 MN/mē.

Applications
High load bearing applications such as office complexes, luxury flats, tower blocks, hospitals etc.
Top

TICO CV/M Medium Stress Bearings

This medium stress structural bearing uses the same high quality compound as is used in TICO CV/CA but is unreinforced except in the 50mm thick version, which has central reinforcement, of high tensile fabric.

CV/M bearings have a working stress range of 1 MN/mē to 1.4 MN/mē.

Applications
Medium load bearing applications such as offices, private dwellings, oil rig modules, floating floors, etc.
Top

TICO CV/LF Low Stress Bearings

This range of low stress bearings is supplied in two grades, both moulded from polychloroprene compounds in varying configurations.

CV/LF/B bearings have a working stress range of 0.04 MN/mē to 0.07 MN/mē.
CV/LF/N bearings have a working stress range of 0.35 MN/mē to 0.7 MN/mē.

Applications
Recording studios, floating floors / ceilings, anechoic chambers, etc.

TICO RESILIENT SEATINGS

A popular solution to the problem of structural damage caused by shrinkage, rotation, differential settlement and localised stresses.

Key Advantages

WB01372_.gif (406 bytes) Simply and economically installed between elements of a building, they provide a resilient barrier to prevent damage.
WB01372_.gif (406 bytes) Reduce the need for expensive finishes on mating surfaces
WB01372_.gif (406 bytes) Attenuation of transmitted noise.
WB01372_.gif (406 bytes) Available in four grades and supplied as either standard strips or pre-cut seatings. Top

There are four grades of resilient seatings, the selection of which is dependent upon any number of factors such as available support, rotation, axial and shear loads:


CV/PF/RS

A very high stress seating, manufactured from press cured layers of heavy duty synthetic rubber proofed fabric, suited to the most arduous applications.
CV/PF/RS bearings have a working stress range of 10 MN/mē to 15.5 MN/mē.
Top
CV/CA/RS
A high stress seating, manufactured from a particle loaded polychloroprene rubber, reinforced with high tensile fabric. Suitable for most building applications.
CV/CA/RS bearings have a working stress range of 4 MN/mē to 7 MN/mē.
Top
CV/M/RS
A medium stress seating, manufactured from a particle loaded polychloroporene rubber; this is the the most popular seating material - suitable for a wide range of applications, can withstand high irregularities in support surfaces.
CV/M/RS bearings have a working stress range of 0.5 MN/mē to 1.4 MN/mē.
Top
CV/D/RS
A low stress seating, made from particle loaded polyisoprene rubber and benefiting from high damping. Designed to accommodate normal surface irregularities under low load conditions.
CV/D/RS bearings have a working stress range of 0.1 MN/mē to 0.3 MN/mē.

BONDSLIP SLIDING BEARINGS

An ideal choice for accommodating large lateral movements, particularly if associated with high vertical loads.
These two-part bearings are designed to cater for a wide range of sliding applications and will accommodate large movements resulting from expansion and contraction etc. The bearings may be backed with TICO resilient materials to enhance their capability and allow for rotation or displacement in addition to their ability to slide.

Key Advantages and Properties
