The direct shear test is a common method for measuring the shear strength of soil. Under vertical pressure, a horizontal shear force is applied for shearing to obtain the shear stress at failure, and then the shear strength parameters and internal friction parameters of the soil are determined according to Coulomb’s law. angle and cohesion. There are manual and electric functions, and limit switches are used to protect the instrument.
