Abstract
The characteristics of the anisotropy and directionality of jointed rock masses are the key to simplifying it as a transversely anisotropic material. Experimental direct shear tests were performed on stratified rocks cored from granulite rocks. The influence of normal stresses and joint orientations was tested and the anisotropy and directionality of the shear strength were evaluated. Numerical shearing tests on stratified rock models and...
