What is it about?
The siltstones from flysch rock mass exposed to weathering have significantly lower shear strength than fresh rock mass. The paper presents results of laboratory testing of shear strength of different grades weathered siltstones and implication on slopes stability.

Why is it important?
The testing procedures are time consuming and expensive and the results are conseuently very rare.
