EN 1337-6:2004 (E)9The design values of the effects (forces, deformations, movements) from the actions at the supports of the structureshall be calculated from the relevant combination of actions according to EN 1990.NOTE 1The decisive design values should be available from a bearing schedule as shown in EN 1990, annex E;1. Until EN1991 is available the guidance given in annex B of EN 1337-1:2000 can be used. Sliding elements should be designed andmanufactured in accordance with EN 1337-2.Performance and durability of bearings designed according to this part of EN 1337 are based on the assumptionthat requirements established in clauses 6 and 7, as relevant, are complied with.NOTE 2The design of rocker bearings is based on the assumption that load passes through a Hertzian contact areabetween two surfaces with dissimilar radii.NOTE 3Line rocker bearings permit rotation about an axis parallel to the line of contact. Point rockers permit rotation aboutany axis.gm values are defined in Eurocodes EN 1992 to EN 1999. The recommended value is gm = 1.NOTE 4When values for partial factors have been selected in Member States, which diverge, for specific works, from therecommended value given in EN 1992 to EN 1999, these values apply in the territory of this Member State. Such values aredefined in the national annex attached to the relevant Eurocodes.6.2 Curved surfacesThe curved surfaces of line rockers shall be of cylindrical shape, those of point rockers shall be spherical.6.3 Surfaces in contactSurfaces in contact shall have the same nominal strength and hardness.6.4 Preventing of slidingMechanical devices shall be provided to prevent contact surfaces of rocker bearings sliding on one another.6.5 Dimensioning of components6.5.1 Dimensions of line rockerNOTE 1The ability of curved surfaces and plates to withstand deformation under load is dependent upon the hardness ofthe material of which they are made. There is not a constant relationship between hardness and yield stress of steel but there isbetween hardness and ultimate strength. Consequently the following expressions are based on the ultimate strength of thematerial.The design axial force per unit length of rocker contact N'Sd shall meet the following condition under the fundamentalcombination of actions:RdSd''NN£(1)Where m2RkRd''gNN=is the design value of resistance per unit length of rocker contact.N'Rk is the characteristic value of resistance of the contact surface per unit length.d2uRk23'EfRN´´=(2)gm values are defined in Eurocodes EN 1992 to EN 1999.
