A study of new screw soil nail

H Tokhi
TLDR
In this article, a new soil nail called screw nail was proposed and its interaction mechanisms between the soil and nail in two cohesive and non-cohesive soi were investigated. But the study was focused on the design, fabrication, and analysis of a new screw nail and their interaction mechanisms.
Abstract
This dissertation is based on the study of a new soil nail called screw nail. The research is focused on the design, fabrication and analysis of a new screw nail and its interaction mechanisms between the soil and nail in two cohesive and non-cohesive soi

Skin Friction between Various Soils and Construction Materials

J. G. Potyondy
- 01 Dec 1961 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used several hundred experiments to determine the magnitude of skin friction, in which the following variables were considered: (1) Various construction materials: steel, wood, concrete; (2) For each material two surface conditions were used: smooth and rough; which are described in such a way that they may be reproduced by anyone with a reasonable degree of accuracy.
