German term

Ersatzreibungswinkel

German to English Tech/Engineering Geology Earthworks
Reibungswinkel translates as "angle of repose" but I did not manage to find a translation for Ersatzreibungswinkel online.

The meaning is given here:https://www.spektrum.de/lexikon/geowissenschaften/ersatzreib...

Both terms occur in a table so unfortunately no specific context is available here.

The text relates to earthworks to remove soil from a contaminated site where new foundations and buildings are then to be installed. The specific content and consistency of the various subsoil layers have to be determined to establish how strong the piles need to be.

Furthermore parameters, e.g. the stiffness modulus Es or the friction angle φ′, are limited in its application to certain boundary conditions.

Equivalent Friction Angle and Cohesion of the Generalized Hoek-Brown Failure Criterion in terms of Stress Invariants
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/264182659_Equivalen...

Cohesion and the equivalent friction angle of pure soil and root-soil composite.
https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Cohesion-and-the-equival...

To include the dependency of cohesion and friction angle on stresses, efforts are being made to estimate equivalent values of the M-C parameters for the range of stresses applicable to a particular design. The paper suggests a new and convenient approach to find the equivalent friction angle and cohesion from any failure criterion that can be expressed in terms of the Nayak and Zienkiewicz's stress invariants.

For this purpose, a concept of equivalent friction angle is usually used [3, 5, 6, 8]. This angle is defined as the friction angle of the MC surface that would pass through the particular stress point given by the shear strength criterion under consideration.

Ersatzreibungswinkel, Reibungswinkel, der aus den effektiven (wirksamen) Scherparametern φ' (wirksamer Reibungswinkel) und c' (wirksame Kohäsion), bezogen auf den aktuellen Spannungszustand σ, berechnet wird. Der Ersatzreibungswinkel φ1 wird in Berechnungsfällen, bei denen eine Verwendung von c' problematisch ist, verwendet. - https://www.spektrum.de/lexikon/geowissenschaften/ersatzreib...
Shear strength parameters, including the cohesion and the angle of shear strength, are key parameters to characterise the failure of materials. - https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/engineering/shear-stren...
