Natural armors such as nacre inspire the development of bioinspired ceramics due to their exceptional toughness and damage tolerance. This study examines influence mortar volume fraction on interfacial mechanics ceramic composites using single lap joint specimens with varying soft‐layer (mortar) volumes: low (LMV, 3%), medium (MMV, 6%), high (HMV, 9%). These fractions reflect natural nacre's content are precisely controlled during specimen fabrication. Experimental results demonstrate adhesive failure dominant mode, increased enhancing maximum elongation without altering ultimate shear strength. Finite element analysis ABAQUS a cohesive zone model reveal volume's significant effect sliding behavior strain energy release rate (SERR). Specifically, compared MMV, LMV exhibits 5% increase in stiffness 26% reduction SERR, while HMV shows 4% decrease 29% SERR. The delays crack initiation extends plastic deformation phase, thereby dissipation capabilities. findings inform tougher, damage‐resistant for engineering by optimizing ceramics.
