Shear strength of soil is characterized by cohesion (c), friction angle (φ) and dilatation. ... Friction increases withincrease in normal load, provided that the soil specimen are allowed toconsolidate (MENCL, V., 1997). It is expected for the shear strength togrow with the decrease in water content.

hope helps ☺️☺️
