Can somebody suggest any literature on how to calculate frustum angle values for soils and rock? Is there any correlation between Angle of internal friction and frustum angle?

Is there any general guideline available for number of test recommended to be carried out in some are?
I would like to do plate load tests in 1000sq.m area so how many plate load tests should be carried out?

Thanks Mccoy. But coefficient of friction is same ratio (δ'/φ'cv) as we are already providing this to the client.

My client is asking for “ratio of friction angle at soil-concrete interface to the effective friction angle of soil” to be included in our soil reports. Please anyone explain isn't it the Coefficient of friction actually?

Why there is difference in upward and downward skin friction of drilled piers (piles)? If someone can explain theoretically.
