Abstract
The shear strength of the soil is a crucial factor in the structure's failure. Before any engineering structure is built on the soil, the shear strength characteristics must be thoroughly examined in order to reduce the calamity of structural collapse. The current study investigates the influence of varied percentages of fine material on soil shear strength. The soil sample consists primarily of sandy and clay soil. The study looked into the impact of fines on shear strength metrics (friction angle and soil cohesion). Several journal papers and articles were reviewed for this study. Based on the findings of several papers, the flow chart was created to describe the effect of the percentage of fine content in the soil and how it affects shear strength parameters. The shear strength parameters of sandy soil are significantly dependent on the percentage of fines in the mixture and the type of fine mineralogical composition. Both soil shear strength parameters increase at a substantial and apparent pace as compared to the particle content and additive increases in clay soil.
