Optimized Analysis Method for Evaluating the Shear Strength Parameters of Rock Joint Surfaces

The results obtained from the mechanical test of rock samples inevitably suffer dispersion owing to discrepancies between test specimens. In view of these deficiencies, the present study proposes a method based on the empirical equation of shear strength developed by Barton to determine the shear st...
