SHEAR STRENGTH OF ROCKS IN-SITU ALONG WEAK PLANES--CASE OF SCHIST, MUDSTONE AND GRANITE

The strength of a rock in-situ essentially differs from that of a rock specimen of laboratory size. It was presumed that the rock in situ is weaker than the rock specimen of laboratory size, since the former contains many weak planes, and the experiments were prepared mainly to obtain the shear strength of the rock in situ along a weak plane.
