- It is measured by two critical parameters, friction
- The test is not applicable to cohesionless or coarse-grained soils
- 2019
- Shear tests indicated that the shear strength mechanism of CGVS was influenced by the interlocking effect among the soil grains, while the shear strength mechanism of FGVS was influenced by the friction effect among the soil grains
- 2 kPa and a friction angle of 33
