• TABLE 1 <br />SHEAR STRENGTH PARAMETERS <br />BOURG MINE EAST DUMP MATERIAL <br />Strength Condition Cohesion Angle of Internal Friction <br />' (psf) (Degrees) <br />Peak Value 175 32° <br />Yield Value 260 17° <br />NOTE: 1. The peak strength condition represents the maximum shear <br />strength failure envelope which was developed during the <br />direct shear testing at various normal loads. <br />2. The yield strength condition represents the strength <br />• envelope below which the strain is elastic (recoverable) <br />and does not represent a failure condition. <br />i <br />t <br />CJ <br />
