Rock Mechanics - an introduction for the practical engineer
www.rocscience.comPublished triaxial strength test data for the fifty rock and concrete types listed in Table 1 are included in this graph. In order to render the test results comparable and to minimise differences caused by different testing techniques, specimen sizes and environmental conditions, the values are plotted on dimensionless scales which ...

Typically, the total internal friction angle (ϕ) is negligible and assumed to be zero (ϕ = 0) in cohesive materials. However, if required for the analyses, the undrained (total)
