Caution should also be used when using N-values to determine silt or clay parameters, due to the dynamic nature of the test and resulting rapid changes in pore pressures and disturbance within the deposit. It also applies where no pore water exists in the soil (the soil is dry) and hence pore fluid pressures are negligible.

Soil friction angle is a shear strength parameter of soils. << This is approximately equal to the residual friction angle r /XObject << (It was called "Coulomb's equation" by Karl von Terzaghi in 1942.) The test does not measure “friction angle” or “cohesion,” as these values are parameters that are derived from the test results. The friction angle varies from 28 to 50 degrees and the cohsion from 15 kPa to 60 kPa. Empirical relations were developed between cohesion and SPT N value, and between angle of friction and SPT N value (Brown and Hettiarachchi 2008; Hettiarachchi and Brown 2009). /F4 37 0 R Introduction.

How do “friction” and “cohesion” work together to stabilize slopes? 4. Compute the value of bearing capacity factor Ny. The angle of internal friction ( and cohesion are the two important physical properties of the soil which determines angle of rupture, shearing strength, safety factor as well as stability condition of the slope materials. Abstract. The direct shear test measures shear strengths as a function of normal stress. The y-intercept of the curve which fits the test results is the cohesion, and the slope of the line or curve is the friction angle. Direct shear testing with geosynthetics is generally performed in accordance with ASTM D5321, Standard Test Method for Determining the Coefficient of Soil to Geosynthetic or Geosynthetic to Geosynthetic Friction by the Direct Shear Method.
