Dataset ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.15121/1987550· OSTI ID:1987550
This dataset includes an Excel file with the results of direct shear tests to investigate the mechanical and geophysical response of saturated joints. Tests were conducted on induced tension-fractured Sierra White granite joints in a custom water pressurized chamber. The preparation of granite joints is summarized in the PDF file. The PDF file also includes a description of the direct shear tests, experimental procedure, and results.
