INTRODUCTION
60 psi (0.41 MPa), the average effective and average peak coefficients of
static friction were 0.57 and 0.69, respectively.
4. For grout specimens with wet interface and normal stress of 60 psi
(0.41 MPa), both average effective and average peak coefficients of static
friction were 0.68.
1. The coefficient of static friction for concrete cast on steel plate and
grout cast below steel plate should be taken as 0.65 for a wet interface
with normal compressive stress levels between 20 and 100 psi (0.14 and
0.69 MPa).
2. The coefficient of static friction for concrete cast on steel plate and
grout cast below steel plate should be taken as 0.57 for a dry interface
with normal compressive stress levels between 20 and 100 psi (0.14 and
0.69 MPa).

perature of 73° F (23° C) and a relative humidity of 50% until test time.
Grout compressive strength was measured using six 2 in. (51 mm) cubes.
Test Setup.—The test setup is shown in Figs.. 3 and 4. This setup is
capable of applying vertical loads normal to the shear plane and hori-
zontal loads parallel to the shear plane. Horizontal rams were used to
apply in-plane shear loads. Vertical rams were used to apply normal
stresses.
Instrumentation.—All loads were measured using calibrated load cells
(1) acting in series with the hydraulic rams. Slip of the concrete test block
relative to the steel plate was measured with two potentiometers.
Test Procedure.—Bond between concrete and steel was broken by ap-
plication of an in-plane shear force applied at the shear-friction interface.
No normal compressive stress other than the weight of the upper block
and loading equipment was applied at this stage. This weight was equiv-

alent to a nominal stress of 8.18 psi (56 kPa). The shear stress required
to cause first slip was noted. The concrete block was then moved back
to its original position on the steel plate.
For tests requiring a wet friction surface, the interfaces were separated
after bond was broken. The interfaces were then ponded in water to
ensure a wet surface during testing. Interfaces remained saturated dur-
ing subsequent testing. During each test, normal stress was held con-
stant.
After application of normal compressive force, the shear load was ap-
plied slowly. A continuous record of the horizontal load versus slip at
the shear-friction interface was obtained. A representative shear stress
versus slip curve is shown in Fig. 5. It can be seen that slip occurred in
increments. Each slip increment occurred within a fraction of a second
and was accompanied by a drop in shear stress. The drop was a result
of the stiffness of the loading system. The shear stress versus slip curves
reported in the results section were idealized by a curve joining the peaks
of the saw teeth of Fig. 5. Note that the testing rate was adjusted to
obtain 0.1 in. (2.5 mm) slip within 3-5 min. The test was stopped when
a slip of 0.5 in. (12.7 mm) was reached. At a slip of 0.5 in. (12.7 mm),
the horizontal component of the vertical loading system was negligible.
