New and current materials for bridge bearings are subjected to tests, according to the European Standards (NEN-EN 1337). With these tests the materials are not subjected to forces, displacements and rotations that are similar to those in practice. In order to give a critical opinion about the tests, it is necessary to obtain more knowledge about the variable load and movement history of bridge bearings of a concrete bridge, the ‘Dintelhavenbrug’. The load and movement history of bridge bearings of the ‘Dintelhavenbrug’ are analyzed by means of a finite element model. In this model the loads caused by traffic en temperature are considered. The traffic loads follow from a fatigue load model with 12 types of trucks, based on the European Standard for traffic loads (NEN-EN 1991-2) and measurements of traffic on the bridge near ‘Moerdijk’. The temperature loads follow from the European Standards (NEN-EN 1991-1-5). For both types of (static) loadings the forces, displacements, rotations and slide paths, which occurs during the lifetime of the different bridge bearings, are determined for each bearing. These results are compared with the values which are presented in the tests of NEN-EN 1337 Part 2: Sliding elements and NEN-EN 1337 Part 5: Pot bearings.
