What is Shear Force?

A shear force is a force applied perpendicular to a surface, in opposition to an offset force acting in the opposite direction. This results in a shear strain. In simple terms, one part of the surface is pushed in one direction, while another part of the surface is pushed in the opposite direction.

How to Calculate Resultant Vertical Shear Force on Section N+1?

Resultant Vertical Shear Force on Section N+1 calculator uses Vertical Shear Force at other Section = Weight of Slice+Vertical Shear Force-(Total Normal Force in Soil Mechanics*cos((Angle of Base*pi)/180))+(Shear Force on Slice in Soil Mechanics*sin((Angle of Base*pi)/180)) to calculate the Vertical Shear Force at other Section, The Resultant Vertical Shear Force on Section N+1 is defined as the value of resultant vertical shear force when we have prior information of other parameters used. Vertical Shear Force at other Section is denoted by X_(n+1) symbol.
