Bearing Assignment, Elevation at Layout Line (Global Z) is the elevation at the bearing action point. Abutment and bent figures, taken from pages 1-13 and 1-15 of the Bridge Seismic Design manual, are shown in Figures 1 and 2:
Figure 1 - Abutment bearing action point (Z = -49ft) and seat (Z = -51ft)
Figure 2 - Bent bearing action point (Z = -49ft) and seat (Z = -51ft)
