When the tectonic plates of the earth’s surface start to have friction at the edges, then the shear stress between the plates tends to increase thereby resulting in earthquakes.

Shear stress on the earth’s surface can be increased by the increase of the height of the slope.

This is because shear stress is directly proportional to the weight of the body and the angle of the slope.
