Railroad Bridge: Fixed, High-Load, Multi-Rotational Disc Bearing
Per AISC - Modern Steel Construction - OCtober 2004 - Steel Quiz - Question #9:
Part or all of the shear may be absorbed by the friction between the base plate and the foundation. In the rail bridge application the friction would be between the Masonry plate and the shock pad or the shock pad and the concrete pier cap.
Does anybody have any data on friction coefficients between these materials?
