The Relationship between Characteristics and Shear Strength of Structural Planes and its Effect on the Stability of Landslide

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, the shear strength of different structural planes are tested with the hand portable shear tester in site. The study shows that the shear strength of the structural plane in the granite mass is mainly related to the roughness, the degree of cementation and interlocking of the structural plane. The shear strength of the smooth plane is less, and the plane with interlock partly is larger. In the tests basis, the paper posts out the relation between τ and σ, which can be used to calculate the stability of the landslide。
