The Mohr and Coulomb test is a extremely important test that directly relates to the real world, as if give us a fair indication at how much load the foundation can put through to the soil below before there starts to become slippage or failure within the soil. It also give us an indication as to how the types of soil perform under different loads and stresses that may be put on.
