       Notes - general: Abstract: It has been suggested that bending fatigue
                        in suspension bridge hangers could be prevented by
                        introducing effective low friction bearings at the
                        hanger sockets.  The performance requirements for such
                        bearings have been established.  A wide ranging review
                        of bearing types, bearing materials and lubricants
                        with the potential to perform satisfactorily in this
                        application has been carried out.
