I am doing a design of a 500,000 gal tank in CA, and am trying to check the resistance to sliding on it. We will be using a ring beam foundation with 6" of crushed base in the middle of it. The tank manufacturer is providing a 1/2" thick fiberboard that will be placed between the tank and the foundation/crushed base.
Is anyone aware of a "standard" coefficient of friction between this fiberboard and base? I am assuming a coefficient for fiberboard to soil would work to. Or if worst comes to worst, a coefficient for steel to the base.
Thanks.
