This part of EN 1337 specifies the requirements for the design and manufacture of rocker bearings. In order to accommodate displacements rocker bearings can be combined with a sliding element in accordance with EN 1337-2.
Bearings which are subjected to rotation greater than 0,05 rad resulting from the characteristic combination of actions are outside the scope of this part of EN 1337. This part of EN 1337 does not apply to rocker bearings made with materials other than those specified in clause 5.
