Evaluation of interface friction between cohesionless soil and common construction materials

A reliable quantitative assessment of interface friction parameters between construction materials and the surrounding soil mass where this interface represents a potential failure surface, will allow for less conservatism and/or safer design of soil-structures. This can only be achieved if the fact...
