11. Factors Influencing Shear Strength
Shear strength is influenced by various factors including soil composition, initial state, and structure. The Mohr-Coulomb failure criteria offer a framework to understand when materials fail due to specific combinations of normal and shear stress. Understanding these factors is essential for geotechnical engineering and soil mechanics.
