I am currently looking at the design of a friction grip clamp. I was wondering if any members could suggest useful design guides?

What do you want to clamp? What do you want to clamp it to? How big are the forces?
 
I am looking at a using a friction clamp as a repair to a cracked tubular section. The clamp will be experiencing force of around 120 kN in hoop tension.
 
Ok. I have no experience in this type of thing so I'll leave it to others.
