Question 3
The laboratory tests on a soil sample gave the following results:
1). Natural water content, wn = 25%
2). Liquid limit, wL = 60%
3). Plastic limit, wp = 35%
4). Percentage of particle less than 2μ = 20%
The value of activity number is
Question 4
The relationship between water content (w%) and number of blows (N) in soils, as obtained from Casagrande's liquid limit device, is given by
w = 20 – log10 N
The liquid limit of the soil is
w = 20 – log10 N
The liquid limit of the soil is
Question 5
