Therefore, it was possible to cut a stable, vertical face to a height of FIGURE 14-1 (far left) Planar failure on continuous bedding surface dipping out
Values of tensile and cohesive strength for the basaltic rock mass are approximately one to two orders of magnitude lower than corresponding values for intact basalt. Temperatures comparable to those at the Venus surface may slightly increase the deformation modulus but decrease the compressive strength of the rock
The tensile strength of soil is very low or negligible and in most analyses it is considered to be zero. In contrast a number of direct or indirect tensile strength tests are commonly carried out for rock. In a direct tensile strength test a cylindrical rock specimen is stressed along its axis by means of a tensile force.

Rock Rock Stress-strain relationships: The deformation of materials is characterized by stress-strain relations. For elastic-behaviour materials, the strain is proportional to the load (i.e., the applied stress). The strain is immediate with stress and is reversible (recoverable) up to the yield point stress, beyond which permanent strain results.
