The Tension Capable Bearing can accommodate structure vertical loads that vary from compression to tension during seismic movements. This bearing can substantially reduce structural framing costs by preventing uplift of a primary structural member, and can eliminate concerns regarding potential structure overturning or large vertical earthquake motions
What else can I help you with?
------- Of earth plates causes an earthquake?
tension
Does tension limit pass before an earthquake occurs?
yes it does
Why did the chilian earthquake happen?
because the plates were rubbing together and the tension stored caused the earthquake so its all to do with plate tectonics
Why when and where earthquake strike?
It is when two plates in the earth because of the release of stress or tension in the earth's lithosphere.
Is there tension in an earthquake?
A force that acts on rock to change its shape or volume.
Are there any benefits of earthquakes?
ThEy heat the earth. Also they release tension form the plates reducing the chance of a huge earthquake
What are the square nuts on the outside of old stucco buildings used for?
Most often they were tension bolts used to square up the structure or earthquake bolts commonly used to square up a structure after an earthquake.
What is a positive effect of an earthquake?
Earthquakes relieve the tension building between tectonic plates. so, loads of small earthquakes lessen the chance that a massive earthquake will happen along the same plate boundary.
What causes the fracture in the ground in earthquake?
Plates under the ground rub against each other creating friction and therefore raise and crack the surface.
What is the climax in the book earthquake terror?
The climax of "Earthquake Terror" by Peg Kehret occurs when the main characters are trapped on an island during a severe earthquake. As they work to survive and make their way to safety, tension and danger are at their peak, leading to a suspenseful and dramatic conclusion.
What is a earthquack?
An earthquake is when two of the earths' plates shift to release tension between the two.
What do you call when plates push together?
It is called tectonic movement. It leads to accumulation of tension. Excessive tension leads to earthquake. ***** It is known as a convergent boundary. If one edge becomes forced downwards into the mantle it becomes a subduction zone.
