This paper reviews the percussion-cup liquid limit, thread-rolling plastic limit (PL) and
various fall-cone and other approaches employed for consistency limit determinations on …

Among the most commonly specified tests in the geotechnical engineering industry, the
liquid limit and plastic limit tests are principally used for (i) deducing useful design parameter …

Soil compaction involves a densification and a relative variation of physical and mechanical
characteristics of soils. Evaluating laboratory compaction parameters such as maximum dry …

The Authors have presented an interesting paper (Hrubesova et al., 2020), which aims (in
part) to validate the Moharjerani (1999) calibration approach for establishing the 80 g/30° …

Liquid and plastic limits, abbreviated respectively as LL and PL, are obtained through the
Casagrande cup method or the fall-cone tests. In the past several correlations between the …

This paper analyzed the consistency of some parameters of soils in the literature and
experimental results from fall cone test and its application to soil plasticity classification. Over …

The Atterberg limits (plastic limit [PL] and liquid limit [LL]) of fine‐grained soils are important
for civil engineering and agronomic applications. Several methodologies exist to determine …

More than 500 datasets from the literature have been used to evaluate the relationships of
specific surface area (SSA), cation exchange capacity (CEC) and activity versus the liquid …

This paper presents effects of particle size distribution and plasticity on geotechnical
properties of sand-clay mixtures. Two different clay types (kaolinite and bentonite) were …
