Direct Shear Testing

Direct Shear Testing is a laboratory method in geotechndeep engineering that measures the shear strength of soils or rocks by applying a controlled shear stress along a predetermined plane under a normal load, distinguishing it from other shear testing methods by its direct measurement of shear resistance at a defined interface.
