Which consequence results from a 'cuneus' formation breaching Roman fortifications?

💡 Explanation

Localized shear failure results as concentrated force overcomes material cohesion around the breach, because the wedge shape amplifies stress at certain points. This breach then leads to further penetration, rather than vibration or resonance, which might occur with different attack types.
