Experimental study on the mechanical properties of loess containing tectonic joints by Huijuan Wang, Huijuan Wang, Huijuan Wang, Jinghua Zhang, Ping Wang, Ping Wang, Yali Wang

“…The key findings are as follows: (1) The joint dip angle plays a decisive role in the evolution of failure mode, with five typical failure mechanisms identified based on fracture characteristics: shear failure, sliding failure, conjugate shear failure, sliding-shear failure, and sliding-conjugate shear failure. (2) The weakening effect of joints exhibits confining pressure dependency: Under low confining pressure (50 kPa), jointed specimens demonstrate increased axial displacement and a reduced shear strength attenuation ratio. (3) Mechanical parameters are significantly influenced by the dip angle: When the joint dip angle falls within the critical dip range of 60°–75°, both cohesion and internal friction angle reach their minimum values, forming zones of weakened mechanical properties. (4) A comparative analysis of simulation materials indicates that single-layer rice paper, due to its optimal thickness and tensile strength, effectively replicates the contact behavior of natural joint surfaces. …”
