Coefficient of Friction

This document lists coefficients of friction for various material pairings, including concrete to soil, steel to steel, brick masonry to different surfaces, cement materials to different surfaces, and other pairings like wood to wood. The coefficients range from 0.10 for steel to Teflon to 0.75 for brick masonry to brick. It notes that friction is generally more for dry surfaces of the same material compared to wet surfaces.

The following friction coefficients shall be considered in calculating the sliding friction forces : 0.30 0.45 0.30 0.10 0.33 0.50 0.40 0.60 0.70 0.75 0.60 0.75 0.65 0.40 0.20 0.40 0.50 - 0.60 0.50 - 0.60 0.60 - 0.70 0.50 0.65 0.48

Cement Blocks on Cement Blocks Cement concrete on dry clay Cement concrete on wet clay Cement concrete on wet sand Cement concrete on dry sand Cement concrete on dry gravel Cement concrete on dry rock Cement concrete on wet rock Brick on Brick Wood on Wood

Note: Friction is more on dry surfaces of the same material compared to wet surface.
