What are Bearing Plates and its advantages?

It is a plate placed under one end of a truss beam, girder, or column to distribute the load. They are used to transfer concentrated compressive forces between two structural elements. Typically, this occurs in two conditions: When a beam or column is supported by concrete or masonry, or. When a beam support is large, concentrated load from a supported element, such as a column.
The advantages of Bearing Plates are as follows:
1. They distribute the loads to a wider area.
2. They carry the loads or movement in both vertical and horizontal directions.
3. They reduce the deflection and also the impact loading if any.
4. They will be mostly flexible and adaptable.

What is Bearing Stress & different types of Bearing Plates?

The Bearing Stress is the contact pressure between the separate bodies. It differs from compressive stress, as it is an internal stress caused by compressive forces. Allowable Bearing Stress is a value based on an arbitrary amount of deformation of a body subjected to a bearing pressure.
The different types of Bearing Plates are as follows:
1. Sliding bearings.
2. Rocker and pin bearings.
3. Roller bearings.
4. Elastomeric bearings.
5. Curved bearings.
6. Disk bearings.
