Looking for shear strength properties of mudstone?
(OP)
Hi,
I'm looking for a reliable source of data for the shear strength properties of mudstone. Everywhere I have looked so far does not give any values. The mudstone I am looking for in particular is located in the North East of the UK, but any properties will give me some sort of an estimate for now.
Thanks

If I think of it, I'll attempt to find a citation that shows the procedure.

There is sandstone which I have parameters for about 1-2m below the mudstone. Would it be recommended to pile to the sandstone instead?

Otherwise, I'm a bit confused. . . Universities often have laboratories that do direct shear testing. Not sure why your research can't mobilize some testing in a university.
