Definition: Bridge bearing capacity refers to the maximum load a bridge bearing can withstand without failure. These bearings are crucial components, acting as the interface between the bridge superstructure (deck, beams) and the substructure (piers, abutments). They transfer loads from the bridge deck to the supporting elements while accommodating movements due to thermal expansion, contraction, and seismic activity.
