Do you really want to learn something about "What is 'angle of repose'"? Yes? Let's just get this party started!
A short answer to this question is…
The angle between the horizontal and the plane of contact between two bodies when the upper body is just about to slide over the lower.
Structural engineers use the angle of repose to anticipate the loading on a shoring scheme or the loading of a footing on another structure.
The term angle of repose is important within the construction industry and the term is used as a field identification or description, as well as an engineering characteristic of materials.
Let’s start by reviewing a few questions people ask:

In soil mechanics, Karl Terzaghi defined the angle of repose as a special internal friction angle that is acquired under extreme (loosest state) conditions [15]. Additionally, it may be defined as the angle of maximum slope inclination at which the soil is barely stable [16].What does the angle of repose depend on...
The angle of repose is important for the design of processing, storage, and conveying systems of particulate materials. When the grains are smooth and rounded, the angle of repose is low. For very fine and sticky materials the angle of repose is high.I hope you liked this post.
