Soil-infi lled discontinuities adversely infl uence the stability of rockmass, because, the infi ll materials especially when saturated, drastically reduce the shear strength. The angle of shearing resistance of a discontinuity decreases signifi cantly for increasing infi ll thickness. Once it reaches a critical thickness, the shear strength of the discontinuity will be governed only by the infi ll material and the rock-walls effect becomes negligible. Owing to the lack of research on the shear behavior of infi lled rock joints, it has been common practice to assume that the shear strength of the joint is that of the infi …
