Block Sliding

Block Sliding is a mechanical failure mode in jointed rock mass behavior wherein a discrete rock block, bounded by intersecting discontinuities, undergoes translational movement along a planar surface due to shear stress exceeding the frictional resistance along the sliding interface.
