Cohesion value of granite.
Cohesion is the component of shear strength of a rock or soil that is independent of interparticle friction.
A value of 0 60 would be a good number for general use.
This non linear behaviour of the envelopes below a critical normal stress is not the result of a dependence of the coefficient of internal friction m on σ n but may be.

Quartz is also available in solid colors with little to no pattern.
In soils true cohesion is caused by following.
It is recommended that the original hoek brown criterion instead be used routinely.

For most rocks varies between 0 8 and 0 5.
Both granite and quartz countertops are in high demand for their strength and resilience.
The values of cohesion for all the investigated materials are approximately 0 15 pa for σ n 0 pa and gradually increase to 137 247 15 pa for σ n 250 400 pa.
Electrostatic forces in stiff overconsolidated clays which may be lost through weathering.
Negative capillary pressure which is lost.
Three cases of strength characterization.
The actual values of these two strength parameters are closely related to the geological con ditions at each site and any program to determine rock strength should start with a thorough exami nation of the geology.
