Abstract The interaction between soil and building structures of various materials is defined on the basis certain assumptions, but these are shown in many cases to be not accurate from point view safe, reliable economic design engineering structures. Therefore, as part our research activities, we decided better understand transfer shear forces other materials. We focused testing a box apparatus, where 3 types tests were carried out: first stage, tested parameters 900 mm 2 apparatus; second properties concrete tested, third was contact with steel plate. results within expected range interface friction angle soils.
