Shear strength of Edmonton Shale
Shear strength properties of several late Cretaceous bedrock materials have been determined by both triaxial and direct shear test methods; materials were divided into three main rock types -- clay shale, bentonitic shale and bentonite, depending upon plasticity; triaxial test results at effective consolidation pressures as high as 500 psi were reported for three materials; effective stress rupture lines were found to be roughly parallel and of concave downwards shape with final inclination of only 8 1/2° at higher pressures; triaxial tests gave peak strengths only; direct shear tests yielded both peak and residual strengths.
