Seismic Bearing Demo at Second Penang Bridge First Technical Conference




I took this video during a recent conference on Penang Second Bridge held in Kuala Lumpur. Among the speaker was a Director of Malaysia Rubber Research who was based in London. I must say the talk was good and should had impressed the audience on the role of seismic rubber bearing.

According to him a lot of rubber seismic bearing had been installed in the Penang Second Bridge.
