When it comes to understanding soil behavior and stability, one crucial aspect is its shear strength. The shear strength of a soil is defined as the soil’s ability to resist sliding along a plane when subjected to shear forces or loading. In geotechnical engineering, we are generally concerned with the shear strength of soil because, […]
