Abstract
The influence of infilling material on rock samples often becomes a problem in determining the 
shear strength. In fact, discontinuity such as joint is often encountered in rock mass. The presence of 
discontinuity will change the behavior of rock mass. This phenomena become worst when the joint 
filled by infilling material. There many problems in the design and construction due to the presence 
of filled joint rock. Concerning with the signification the effect of filled joint to its shear strength it is 
necessary to carry out tests on rock samples. A series of laboratory experimentation is carried out to 
model the filled joint by using Tuff as a joint block and clay infilling material. In these tests is varying 
parameters  of  normal  stress,  infilling  thickness  and  roughness  of  joint  surface.  From  the  test  it  is 
showed that the shear strength of a joint decreased significantly with the presence of infilling material 
in  the  aperture  of  a  joint.  However,  the  reduction  of  shear  strength  depends  on  the  thickness  of 
infilling material.
