11.6.4.3 — The coefficient of friction w in Eq, (11-25) and Eq. (11-26) shall be taken as: Concrete placed monolithically. 1.44 Conerete placed against hardened concrete with surface intentionally roughened as specified iM 11.6.9..sssmnasnnannenien WOR Conerete placed against hardened conerete not intentionally roughened. 0.64 Conerete anchored to as-rolled structural steel by headed studs or by reinforcing bars (see 11.6.10).. 0.72 where A= 1.0 for normalweight concrete and 0.75 for all lightweight concrete. Otherwise, 4 shall be deter- mined based on volumetric proportions of lightweight and normalweight aggregates as specified in 8.6.1, but shall not exceed 0.85. R11.6.4.3 — In the shear-friction method of calculation, itis assumed that all the shear resistance is due to the friction between the crack faces. It is therefore necessary to use artificially high values of the coefficient of friction in the shear-friction equations so that the calculated shear strength Will be in reasonable agreement with test results. For conerete cast against hardened concrete not roughened in accordance with 11.6.9, shear resistance is primarily due to dowel action of the reinforcement and tests!''7 indicate that reduced value of = 0.62 speciied for this case is appropriate. ‘The value of 4 for conerete placed against as-rolled structural steel relates to the design of connections between precast conerete members, or between structural steel members and structural conerete members. The shear-transfer reinforce- ment may be either reinforcing bars or headed stud shear connectors; also, field welding to steel plates after casting of concrete is common. The design of shear connectors for composite action of conerete slabs and steel beams is not covered by these provisions, but should be in accordance with Reference 11.48.
