Can anyone guide me what is meant by filament?

@Vijay.
Filament - wedge.
Filament - wedge.

Here, s = c + σ * tan(φ).

s = c+ σ * tan(φ).(φ) = 45degree.
o<tan(φ)<1.
So that angle is 45 degree.
o<tan(φ)<1.
So that angle is 45 degree.

But tan60 = 1.732.

Agree @Sumit,
Why not 60°? Give Any explanation.

Tan45= 1 so maximum shear stress at 45 degrees on the wedge of the horizontal plane.

Shear Stress= (P1-P2)/2 * Sin 2a,
For a = 45 , Shear Stress is max.
i.e. (P1-P2)/2.
For a = 45 , Shear Stress is max.
i.e. (P1-P2)/2.
