The mechanical properties of discontinuity are different from those of a whole rock. And the shear strength of discontinuity is closely related to its morphological characteristics. The study of the mechanism of failure of jointed rock mass under shear stress is to reveal its mechanical behavior and its mechanism of failure. This paper presents a fundamental research in the mechanical properties of the regular jugged discontinuity under various normal stresses in the shear test. And it describes the mechanical properties of the regular jugged discontinuity under shear stress and their principa...
