Clarification of shearing property of solid waste material has been required to understand the failure mechanism and to evaluate the static stability of waste ground. Past research showed that the shearing responses of waste material with fibrous materials caused a significant increase in strength and a reduced post-peak strength loss. A modeling approach is proposed in this paper for evaluating the contribution of fibrous materials to the shear strength of waste material. The reinforcement effect of fibrous materials that depends primarily on the angle between shear plane and fibrous materials orientation is defined from tensile strength of waste material. Simulations show how the effectiveness of reinforcement is captured and provide good agreement with experimental data.
