1 SHEAR STRENGTH In general, the shear strength of any material is the load per unit area or pressure that it can withstand before undergoing shearing failure.
2 Shearing When you Pins hear can Shear be used Failure to fasten you With high enough plate forces in probably together think two of steel Shearing plates: Pins or opposite directions Bolts. How do these fail? Each pin has sheared into two pieces.
3 The failure plane for metals will be parallel to the external shear forces. The If the internal shear shear force stress, causes τ is failure, simply then shear the shear force, stress T acting that on the results, failure plane τ f is the divided shear by strength the area, of A of the the failure material. plane: T So shear forces are those that tend τ = A to cause shear failure. Area, A
4 Since The Shear the external Force that force acts is on acting the parallel failure plane to the is failure resisted plane, by the internal strength strength of the of the material. material is thought of as its internal friction, F. This is the material s reaction to the external shear force, T.

15 TRIAXIAL COMPRESSION TEST Can be performed on all types of soil, moist or dry and can consolidate sample to in situ conditions by tracking pore water pressures. Measures vertical stress applied to soil sample and confining pressure. Shear stress on failure plane must be calculated from principal stresses.
