steel to mortar friction coefficient
(OP)
I need to know the friction coefficient for steel to mortar and steel to concrete.
I thank you for your help.

RE: steel to mortar friction coefficient
the only coefficients coming near to that You are asking for are according to "Hütte" 16. edition of 1896 section I page 206:
stones and gravel to iron 0.42-0.49
masonry to concrete 0.76
I´m not sure that I found the right translation for that from German language.
The coefficient You are looking for may be between these two.

From alot of experience, I can tell you that I've seen the values for static coefficient of friction of the same piece of neolite, resurfaced identically, to various ceramic tiles range from .35 to .9 using the exact same testing procedure, ASTM C 1028.
You might do a web search using "mortar, steel, coefficient, friction," and then narrow it down with ASTM 1028 if needed.
Good luck,
Jim

In the past, I have used a value of 0.5 for concrete floor planks restraining the compression flange of steel beams, on the understanding that it is really more like 1.0 in practice, and this has been accepted by checking authorities. In reality it is probably quite variable, and the value you use will depend on why you need to know it!
Good luck.
