Physical experiments dealing with the problem of lateral pressure of granular materials proceed some years using medium-size models of the ideal non-cohesive granular masses and bi-component pressure sensors. The experiments have brought extraordinary number of data of which is evaluated gradually. The results of the analyses of active normal components were presented previously. The Paper deals with the first results of the tangential pressure component analysis of the experiment E1, i.e. with the interface friction during three basic types of movement towards active side.
