Coefficent of Friction for Vitrified Clay Pipe (VCP)

Coefficent of Friction for Vitrified Clay Pipe (VCP)

Coefficent of Friction for Vitrified Clay Pipe (VCP)

(OP)
Does anyone have a conservative coefficient of friction for the interface of a VCP and soil?  And an interface of VCP and CLSM?   

RE: Coefficent of Friction for Vitrified Clay Pipe (VCP)

I am not sure exactly what/or for what purpose you are looking for this information, nor exactly what (or in what context?) you mean by a "conservative" coefficient; nevertheless, I am aware Mssrs. Jeff Boschert of NCPI and Mark Bruce of Can-Clay at least delivered a paper at last year's ASCE Pipeline event in Atlanta where jacking loads to move strings of clay pipes in the ground were discussed (I don't think these gentlemen would be very hard to find in a web search).
