Shear behavior of crushed mudstone and claystone under macrostructural and microstructural approaches

This article discussed the shear behavior of crushed mudstone and claystone in Malaysia when subjected to short- and long-term immersion while staged compression-immersion-direct shear tests were performed. The crushed mudrocks were subjected to 5 stages of loading (50 kPa, 100 kPa, 150 kPa, 300 kPa...

The crushed mudrocks were subjected to 5 stages of loading (50 kPa, 100 kPa, 150 kPa, 300 kPa, and 600 kPa) with and without immersion, whereby immersions were done at 100 kPa and 600 kPa vertical loads were referred to as long- and short-term immersion tests, respectively.
