Rock mechanics

decrease of peak shear strength and stiffness of rock joints as the joint length tested increases.

In rock mechanics, joint scale effect refers to decrease of peak shear strength and stiffness of rock joints as the joint length tested increases. This meaning comes from Bandis (1981) in International Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences & Geomechanics Abstracts.[1]
