Answer 2

Direct shear test:

A direct shear test is a laboratory or field test used by nontechnical engineers to extent the shear strength properties of soil  or rock material, or of discontinuities in soil or rock commonalities.

Unconfined Compression Test:

Unconfined Compression Test (UCT) is a simple laboratory testing technique to measure the mechanical properties of rocks and fine-grained soils. It delivers a measure of the untrained strength and the stress-strain features of the rock or soil.
