Frictional forces developed on the sides of a pile, or other structure embedded in soil, that tends to cause it to be dragged downward. It is often developed in a consolidating soil mass.  1, record 1, English, - negative%20skin%20friction

Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT

Overloading of a pile by a settling fill which adds additional weight to them. This effect, called "negative friction", resulted in the failure of steel bearing piles which supported a steel mill in Hamilton, Ontario, caused by the settlement of a 15-ft layer of slag underlain by soft clay.  2, record 1, English, - negative%20skin%20friction

Dans les cas où les pieux traversent une couche de sol compressible, il faut envisager [...] la possibilité de frottement négatif. Celui-ci se produit, d’une manière générale, lorsque le sol se tasse plus que le pieu [...] Le tassement progressif par consolidation de la couche compressible provoque sur le pieu un frottement dirigé vers le bas [...]  4, record 1, French, - frottement%20lat%C3%A9ral%20n%C3%A9gatif

"Spill-through" Abutments. When a high approach fill is underlain by a soft-clay layer of considerable thickness, the stresses due to lateral pressures and to vertical "drag" (i.e., to negative-friction) loads of the clay layer on the rear row of piles under a continuous abutment tend to become very large (...)  1, record 2, English, - high%20approach%20fill
